With many vacationers traveling to Panama City by car, the risk of objects falling from vehicles is high. Car toppers and bike racks require proper usage in order to ensure that items will not fall off of vehicles. And, even when used properly, sometimes these toppers and racks can still fall. Some people skip these devices altogether and simply try to strap bikes and other items to the top of their cars, resulting in dangerous conditions for everyone on the road.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident caused by an object in the road, call Perry & Young, P.A., in Panama City, Florida, at 850-215-7777. Our "go teams" are available 24/7.
While items such as tires and furniture commonly fall off of vehicles, other hazards may be the result of road construction. Chunks of concrete and other debris, as well as construction signs and cones can all cause serious car accidents and injuries.

Chances are, the person responsible for your accident and injury is long gone. While we may not be able to identify the negligent party, any injury caused by a road hazard or falling object should be covered by your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. However, your own insurance company may not be forthcoming about paying you the compensation you are entitled to. This is why hiring a knowledgeable lawyer is extremely important.
