Golf cart injuries can range from mild bumps and bruises to life-threatening accidents. Some of the most common golf cart injuries we see include:
Victims of golf cart accidents may face serious, long-term complications. That may include injuries that do not heal but lead to chronic pain, paralysis, and even loss of life.
Golf carts may not seem like a risky vehicle to drive, but they are more prone to accidents than you may realize. Because they have a higher center of gravity than other vehicles, they tend to be easy to tip over. This often occurs when the weight on them is not distributed properly. Golf carts are also risky if the driver loses control, often becoming hard to control heading down slopes and hills.
In these situations, the golf cart can roll over, run over a person or child, or crush someone if it falls on top of them. Larger and more advanced golf carts can be even heavier and harder to drive.
Victims of golf cart accidents may be able to seek financial compensation against the party that caused the incident. This may include instances of when a driver fails to maintain the vehicle or the operator engages in reckless behavior. If you can demonstrate negligence, we can then seek damages for your losses. Those damages may include:
In serious accidents, victims face numerous potential risks to their health and well-being. Do not overlook the risk of damage to relationships and your quality of life.
