The Unspoken Dangers of Carbon-Fiber Arrows

Modern equipment has made the ancient sport of archery more accessible to the general public than ever before. Casual fans can rent bows and arrows from any number of public facilities, and most offer lessons for children, adults, and everyone in-between. Those more serious about the craft can compete in competitions all over the country. Bow and arrow hunting is so common that hunter-archers have their own specified seasons in Alabama. Of course, using a bow for anything from soft-target … [Read more...]

In an Accident, Don’t be a Hero!

Was he distracted? It’s possible that he was texting or eating on his way to school. Then again, he could have been the victim of his own inexperience as a driver. It was a clear day, just routine traffic on Memorial Parkway.  He’d probably been driving all of 6 months. He said he didn’t mean it to happen. Of course he didn’t.   It’s obvious that no one plans to plow into the back end of a car and to hurt someone and risk hurting themselves. His car hit your newly-paid-for car causing it … [Read more...]

18 Wheeler Accident with Self-Driving Car

For years we have been hearing about the inevitability of automated automobiles – the carefree dream of self-driving cars. By now, we have all imagined zipping down pristine thoroughfares at 90 miles an hour, our backs to the road, happily chatting with our family and friends, and arriving at our destinations as rested as if we had been sitting on the sofa at home. But the reality is that this vision is still many years away. Recently, a collision of a vehicle with its “autopilot” engaged … [Read more...]

Settling a Car Accident Claim Quickly Might be a Mistake

If you’ve been in a car accident, and don’t know a lawyer personally, there might be a temptation to call the number off the billboard and get a 'check for your wreck.' Be careful! You might not be getting the best and most thorough representation. You might get a fast settlement but will you be fairly compensated? Lawyers often attempt to attract clients by offering speedy settlements which lead to quick cash. Getting a check for a wreck may sound great, but, to quote an older lawyer, "once … [Read more...]

Damages in Car Wreck Cases

If you are in a wreck, a lot of “bad” can happen. In the most general sense, wrecks cause property damage and personal injury. However, there are other problems where money will be paid as reimbursement. With proper legal help, you may be compensated for some resulting damages. The one immediate issue in almost every car accident is the damage to the vehicles. Payment for vehicles is governed by sections in the policy which typically address repair bills and replacement cost. Replacement cost … [Read more...]

Injured After Slipping On Ice At Work? Here’s What To Do Next.

Icy Bridge

Ice on sidewalks and in parking lots is a hazard that causes thousands of falls each year. Most of these falls result in little more than wet pants, a bruised bottom and embarrassment. But some of these can be serious. If a person hits her head, for instance, then she can have a concussion, which may develop into a number of different, often more-severe conditions. What steps should be taken after a fall? Have any and all injuries checked by a medical professional, no matter how minor they … [Read more...]

Share the Road:  Biking 101

bike-share-road

While training for the 2014 Racin’ the Station Duathlon held on Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, I spent a lot of time on local roads across Madison County.  Although I’ve been a regular in “spin” class (stationary bike) for over four years, cycling on the roads is relatively new to me. Frankly, I find sharing a lane with traffic to be great exercise but dangerous at times.  To prepare for the duathlon (run 3.14 km / bike 23 km / run 3.14 km), I signed up for a Fleet FeetTM Sports Training … [Read more...]

Serious Injuries from Falling Down

Falling down. We all do it. And most of us do the same thing: Get up as quickly as possible and look around furtively to see if anyone saw us fall. We then go on with our day in grass-stained pants sporting a brand new bruise. But what if you sustain serious injuries from falling down? Well, then its a trip to the ER and maybe the bone doctor. After 6 months or so, life returns to normal. But what if a serious injury occurs AND the fall was due to someone else's carelessness? That's where we … [Read more...]
