Surprize Visit
In recent news, a woman woke up to a crashing sound in her living room. What should you do when you find a automobile has invaded your home? Call the police, news or call a tow truck? These are reasonable thoughts that can run through your mind. Fortunately, for the homeowner, the car owner was still there with a passenger inadvertently pinned in the car and could not flee the scene, so she called the police. Although the home owner was unharmed, the couple inside the vehicle quickly claimed the driver lost control of the car due to bad weather.
The police report stated that they were going too fast for conditions and the driver was intoxicated. The driver is liable for the damages and responsible for his actions. Now the home owner has to deal with repairs to her home and deal with going to court to testify about the events she did not even expect. The process can be a long one and as such, the home owner has a right to sue the driver for causing personal injury, the damages to her home, furnishings and for any complications stemming from this incident. If she works, this also means she may have to take time off of work, being that courts are usually open for daytime operations. She may also need to get therapeutic help for the mental and/or the emotional affect of this stressful traumatic experience, incurring excessive medical bills that can add up to hundreds. The fact is that the culprit of the harm caused should be held liable for their negligence. Whether you live in Pompano, Miami Beach or Pembroke Pines, you should know your rights to pursue recovery.
