Defective Seat Belts: Signs of Seat Belt Use
It’s common knowledge that seat belts are intended to protect passengers from injury in a collision. However, a defective or poorly designed seat belt can cause serious injuries to a person in the event of a collision. The next several blog posts will feature HLM Partner, Stephen Lowry, who will explain what can cause these failures and what steps to take if you’ve been in a collision that involves a faulty seat belt.
In this first segment, Steve describes signs of seat belt use. Seat belts are often among the first issues explored in personal injury and product defect cases.
