4th QUARTER 2002 NEWS
2002 CHILD RESTRAINT/SEATBELT LAW UPDATE
Beginning January 1, 2002, the existing version of Vehicle
Code Section 27360 (Child Passenger Restraints: Requirements)
was repealed. The previous requirement of 4 years old and 40
pounds has been updated. Under the new law, any child who is
under 6 years of age and weighs under 60 pounds is required to
be secured in a child passenger restraint system. If the child
is at least 6 years of age and weighs 60 or more pounds, that
child is not required to be secured in a child passenger
restraint system. It is still recommended that children under
12 years of age remain in the backseat. The new law was
expanded to include children who have outgrown traditional
child safety seats, yet are still not big enough to properly
fit in a shoulder/lap seat belt. These "in between" children
are now required to be secured in either a traditional child
safety seat or a booster seat, which essentially raises the
child up to better accommodate a shoulder/lap seat belt.
DAIMLER-CHRYSLER SEATBELT BUCKLE DEFECTIVE
The Gen 3 seatbelt buckle, installed in approximately 14
million Daimler-Chrysler vehicles since 1993 is reported
defective. A lawsuit filed in 2000 alleges that the buckle
unlatches during accidents and fails to secure infant car
seats properly. The suit asks for compensation to car owners
for inconvenience and for the replacement and recall of all
Gen 3 seatbelt buckles in Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles.

for consumers and attorneys. You should consult with a
lawyer for legal advice that applies to your situation and
location.
Automobile / car accidents and
truck wrecks cause untold suffering in our country. The
physical pain and injuries, the property loss as vehicles are
damaged, the costly repair or replacement and the loss of
income are distressing. For many individuals, they are a
part of their future as they struggle with disabilities, pain
and loss of transportation. Vehicle accidents are
generally covered under a complex umbrella of interrelating
laws designed to prevent harm or compensate a person or
property for harm. These are call Personal Injury
Law and Tort Laws. Torts occur through unreasonable
negligence, malicious intention or strict liability.
Medical bills such as doctor,
hospital or physical therapy bills can be overwhelming.
Accidents involving licensed, motorized vehicles, including
cars, trucks, motorcycles, mopeds, snowmobiles, planes, boats,
etc., may entitle victims of these accidents to legal
compensation for these and loss of income and pain and
suffering endured as a result.
Dangerous intersections, poorly
designed and maintained roads, crossing traffic lanes, turning
vehicles, impaired, unlicensed or drunken drivers, obscured
vision due to weather conditions or improper highway
design, faulty automobile equipment such as tires or airbags,
worn or damaged roadway markings or other unsafe driving
conditions lead to and contribute to accidents and collisions.
If an insurance company
assigned a lawyer to defend you, but at the same time,
reserves the right to question whether they will provide full
coverage, there is potential for a conflict of interest. It is
usually wise to hire your own attorney to evaluate the
situation and ensure that your interests are protected.
Initial consultations are often free. Legal advice can
save you time, trouble and money and can allow you to be
compensated for your misfortune.

Vehicle Wrecks FAQs
What should I do immediately following a
car accident?
Who is liable for paying for my physical
injuries as well as any personal property damage?
Who is responsible for an accident
involving my vehicle and a city street pothole?
Should I take the settlement my insurance
company is offering me?
What issues will I face in making a claim
for my injuries sustained in an auto accident?
What if I cannot afford to pay my medical
bills?
When will my personal injury claim be
resolved?
What is a permanent injury?
Am I at fault if I rear-end another
vehicle?
I did not feel pain at the scene and
refused medical treatment. Now, a few days later I am in pain.
What should I do?
What should I do immediately
following a car accident?
Remain calm and wait for paramedics to arrive on the scene. If
you are not severely injured, collect all pertinent
information from the other drivers - driver’s license numbers,
address, telephone numbers, insurance card information, etc.
Keep a daily journal beginning with the date of the accident
to document all physical and mental injuries, as well as
document your view of the accident.
BACK UP
Who is liable for paying for
my physical injuries as well as any personal property damage?
The driver(s) who caused the accident’s liability insurance
pays for your car damage and personal injuries. If you are at
fault for the accident, your liability insurance will pay the
other driver(s) for property damage and personal injuries up
to your policy's limits.
BACK UP
Who is responsible for an
accident involving my vehicle and a city street pothole?
Responsibility for damage caused by improper maintenance or
repair of roads and highways generally lies with the
government agency responsible for the upkeep of such roadways.
If it were a pothole on a city street, the city would be
responsible, etc.
BACK UP
Should I take the
settlement my insurance company is offering me?
You should not take any settlements offered by an insurance
company without first speaking with an experienced lawyer.
Insurance companies typically offer a minimal amount of money
in return for your signature stating that you will not sue
them. Never take an insurance check without first consulting
an attorney.
BACK UP
What issues will I face in
making a claim for my injuries sustained in an auto accident?
The three categories of issues that typically arise in a tort
claim after an automobile accident are:
• Liability – who is at fault and to what degree
• Damages – injuries or losses that were caused by the
accident
• Insurance Coverage – what the insurance company will pay for
after an accident
A claim for injuries usually is based upon carelessness or
negligence. In worse case scenarios, it involves an
intentional or reckless act.
BACK UP
What if I cannot afford to
pay my medical bills?
If you suffer injuries from a car accident, you will likely
have medical bills from physicians, hospitals, physical
therapists, and other health care providers. You are primarily
responsible for paying your bills, regardless of the cause of
your injuries. The at-fault person's liability insurance
carrier is responsible for paying you reasonable compensation
for damages incurred, which includes medical bills, but the
insurance carrier is not responsible for paying your doctors,
hospitals, and other providers. Sometimes the amount the
insurance company is willing to pay is far less than the
actual amount you owe.
BACK UP
When will my personal
injury claim be resolved?
Personal injury claims can be resolved in a matter of a few
weeks or months. However, they can take up to several years
depending on the complexity of the case. It is best to speak
with an experienced personal injury attorney about your
specific case.

What is a permanent
injury?
A permanent injury is an injury that will be with you for the
rest of your life or for some period beyond the settlement of
the claim. In most cases, the injured party is entitled to
compensation from the at-fault party or their insurance
company for all medical bills incurred to date and into the
future for all injuries caused by the accident.
BACK UP
Am I at fault if I rear-end
another vehicle?
Usually, yes. Massachusetts’s law states that you must
maintain a safe distance to be able to stop safely if a car
stops in front of you.
BACK UP
I did not feel pain at the
scene and refused medical treatment. Now, a few days later I
am in pain. What should I do?
You should immediately consult your medical provider regarding
any pain, discomfort or possible injuries from a car accident,
even if you think they may be only minor injuries. Even if you
did not complain of injuries at the scene of the car accident,
you may be entitled to payment of your medical bills,
compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, loss of
earnings capacity, and emotional distress due to personal
injuries. You should consult an experienced Massachusetts car
accident attorney to discuss whether you need representation
on your claim.
