(Newswire.net — October 25, 2013) — Another major win against municipality issues in the city of Philadelphia for Ginsburg & Associates! We are all familiar with how scary crossing the street can be, let alone doing so at night. So what happens when a crossing area is not properly lit combined with poor visibility on the part of oncoming traffic? A recipe for disaster for sure.
This was the fate of one poor pedestrian one night when the plaintiff was struck by an oncoming bus due to poor visibility while crossing the street. Unfortunately for everyone involved, a poorly maintained street light was not properly lit at the time and was determined to be the main cause of the accident. Ginsburg & Associates was able to recover over $535,000 from the municipal contractor responsible for the broken light for the client to assist with much needed health care for damages.
We all understand the dangers of the road, but safety should always take precedence when it comes to maintaining our roads. Any negligence should never go unnoticed and unsettled for the sake of everyday people whom are simply trying to get from one place to another via the sidewalk.
