An accident involving an SUV limo resulted in five injuries at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. A family of four had previously reserved limousine service from the airport to their hotel upon arrival. What should have been the luxurious start to their vacation instead began with a trip to a local medical center. The family, which included a seven-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, received non-life threatening injuries when their 75-year-old limo driver lost control of the large vehicle. The SUV was going through the ground level of one of the airport's parking garages when the driver apparently lost control and hit a parked car. The driver then careened into a large concrete support pillar nearly head on. The driver and the four passengers were quickly transported to a medical center for treatment. Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue officials began an investigation to try to determine why the limo driver lost control of the vehicle. The accident totaled the vehicle but the driver and the family are expected to make a full recovery. Were you injured in an accident that was not your fault?

Injured in a car accident?
A car accident can mean painful injuries and the possibility of a lengthy recovery. On top of this is the emergency room, hospital and other medical expenses. You may have to miss a great deal of work because of your injuries which can mean further financial stress to you and your family. Personal injury law exists to help protect victims of negligence from having to face the fallout from an injury accident on their own. You may be entitled to significant compensation that can cover all costs—financial, physical and emotional—of a car accident.
