For the latest reporting year in Pennsylvania, we know that there were over 128,000 crashes. Out of those, more than 80,000 people were injured. We know that vehicle crashes can cause serious injuries, but what are some injuries that can be caused by seat belts?
We need to point out that the full extent of seat belt injuries may not be felt for hours or even days after a crash takes place. Some of the signs and symptoms of a seat belt injury can include:
When a seat belt fails, serious injuries can occur. Defective seat belts can break or may not lock properly, causing drivers and passengers to be thrown around inside a vehicle. In worst-case scenarios, vehicle occupants could be ejected from a vehicle due to a faulty seat belt.
In these cases, the injured parties may have a product liability case as well that they can pursue against the vehicle and/or seat belt manufacturer.
*Please understand that you should always wear a seat belt when on the roadways. Though injuries can still occur when using a seat belt, there is no disputing that they save lives.
Your seat belt is there to save your life. However, that does not mean you will be injury-free in the event of a crash. There are certain injuries that only occur or are exasperated due to a seat belt and you need to know where to turn in the aftermath of a crash.
