Pedestrian dies in taxicab accident
Even as a pedestrian minding your own business you can get seriously injured or killed if you don’t keep an eye out for traffic. In particular, cabs in the Chicago area drive like no others. Protect yourself against accidents by keeping an eye on your surroundings when you are near busy streets. It is important to have uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage so that if you are ever injured, you can, not only go after the cab company (which is required to hold $350,000.00) in insurance, but your own insurance for injuries beyond that $350,000.00 limit. In this case, a person was killed and 2 others injured by this cab driver’s negligence. If the deceased person has no additional coverage, her family will have to split the $350,000.00 with the two others injured. If you or anybody you know is injured in a cab/taxi accident, please call 312-641-9200 or visit https://chicago-personal-injury-lawyers.us/.
