Car Accidents in Pennsylvania Construction Zones
We have handled construction-related crashes in western Pennsylvania and statewide. They fall into two categories:
Negligence of other drivers — There is a reason the speed limit is lower in a construction zone. It is not only for the safety of construction crews, but for the safety of drivers. Drivers zipping along at 55 mph or more in a 35 mph zone often cause rear-end and chain reaction accidents or injure their passengers when they hit concrete barriers or leave the roadway.
Negligence of construction crews — Many construction zone accidents are caused by unexpected hazards created by construction companies. Our cases have included confusing signs or road markings, sudden sharp turns and dead ends, failure to put out cones and barriers, unlit detours, and steep shoulder drop-offs. The common thread is failure to warn and deviation from accepted construction zone standards.
We have also represented construction workers injured by cars in work zones. We handle the workers' compensation case and lawsuits against the driver or third party.
Hal Waldman & Associates provides sophisticated investigation to determine what caused the accident. We have won damages for serious injuries and wrongful death by showing the driver's reckless disregard or the careless actions of road crews. Our sole focus is maximizing your compensation.
