We’re a little over a year into Canada’s nation-wide cannabis legalization, and in that time, our personal injury lawyers have been asked about its potential impact on road safety.
Albertans, it’s that time of year again: the season of cheer, togetherness, and terrible driving conditions. As the snow, slush, and ice start accumulating on our roads, take every possible precaution to make it through the holidays safely. One of the surest ways to decrease your likelihood of needing an accident injury lawyer this season is by using winter tires.
As personal injury lawyers, we’ve seen firsthand the terrible impact of driving while drunk. Now, with cannabis entering the mainstream, motorists face a new danger. On October 17, 2018, Canada made history by becoming one of the first countries to fully legalize cannabis for medical and recreational use. Regardless of your stance on the matter, one thing is for sure: in our post-legalization landscape, there’s never been a more relevant time to talk about safety on Alberta’s roads.
Car accidents, big or small, can have a massive impact on the lives of the people involved. Even when you do everything right, the unfortunate truth is that whenever you find yourself on the road, you’re at risk of being injured in an accident.
No matter how good of a multitasker you think you are, personal injury lawyers know that distracted driving can cause accidents with even the most experienced of drivers. But just what does distracted driving mean?
