Seat Belt and Airbag Injuries

A Hard-Hitting Seat Belt and Airbag Injury Lawyer

Seat belts and airbags are not perfect: they can cause injuries greater than what a car accident or rear-end collision may have caused alone. Defective seat belts and airbags can even cause harm more severe than if they were not used at all.

Seatbelt use has become more universal since the establishment of seatbelt laws in states around the country. These laws were introduced with a goal of reducing passenger injuries resulting from head or spinal cord trauma. We frequently hear of the failure to wear a seat belt as something that contributes to driver or passenger injury. But that is not the whole story.

How seat belts or airbags may injure auto accident victims

First, there is installation and/or repair workmanship: errors of this type can lead to seat belt injuries or air bag injuries. The seat belt or air bag may also be defective in the design or production process. Defective seat belts can cause injury to internal organs, including injuries resulting from broken ribs. Airbag failure is associated with skin abrasions, fractures, and facial injuries, particularly damage to the eye and permanent vision impairment.
