Listen to Michael Brook's radio show appearances on personal injury law in New York and New Jersey. Full episode audio with written transcripts.
Breaking a rule yourself does not entitle someone else to put an obstacle in your path.
Not every question gets the answer the caller hoped for. Here the fault sits with the driver.
Even a cyclist who broke the rules does not carry all the blame. The car keeps a share.
The question is not why they fell. It is who was responsible for watching them.
Commercial policies run to millions. Reaching them depends entirely on the severity of the injury.
Spills get mopped within minutes of a fall. Photograph the floor before that happens.
