With the arrival of spring, many people begin to focus on lawn maintenance, from homeowners to those who run outdoor maintenance companies. Often, people use riding lawn mowers to maintain a lawn. Unfortunately, these riding mowers can be especially risky for a number of reasons. Aside from rollovers which can leave the operator pinned under the mower, other risks may be present, such as the risk of being hit by a vehicle.
Recovering from a job-related traffic crash injury
Employees face different hazards on a daily basis, depending on their line of work. For some, machinery, chemicals, and working in high places present risks. However, some people are required to drive a vehicle for work-related purposes, whether their job completely revolves around driving (truck and taxi drivers) or they occasionally drive a company vehicle, such as an employee who is asked to run an errand. Either way, workers who get behind the wheel face many risks on the road and may become involved in a crash, which could cause them to struggle with a debilitating injury.
