Child Passengers Deserve Protection

As an experienced Nashville automobile accident attorney I find it difficult to believe that passengers in a vehicular crash were wearing their seatbelts when they are thrown from the vehicle. A recent crash in Cannon County leaves me wondering what the parent might have been thinking, when, while driving her children and a friend to school, crossed the centerline, over-corrected, lost control and flipped the vehicle, tossing three of the boys from the vehicle.

As a parent it is our duty to protect our children and those in our charge. Protecting them while driving means going the speed limit, avoiding distractions and insuring that they are wearing their seat belts. The mother and the guest passenger are in critical condition.

If you are a parent teach your children by example, and explain the dangers they face when they are on the roads of Tennessee. We teach by example, whether we have them in the car or not we should keep in mind that all adults are responsible for highway traffic safety.
