Baltimore Lack of Guardrails Attorney

Guardrails are used as temporary and permanent additions to roadways in order to deter dangerous collisions. However, if guardrails are missing, drivers can be at risk of high speed head-on crashes or other serious accidents.

Sometimes, road construction crews and municipalities fail to erect guardrails for permanent or temporary road hazards. This can put you and your loved ones in danger. If you have suffered in a car accident due to missing guardrails, you may be eligible to receive financial compensation to help you with your medical bills, vehicle damage, and other expenses. To discuss your case, contact an experienced Baltimore lack of guardrails lawyer from Belsky, Weinberg & Horowitz, LLC, today at 410-234-0100.

The Purpose of Guardrails

Guardrails are low, heavy barriers that can be made out of concrete or metal railings or cable attached to wooden posts. They are constructed to stop or seriously hinder a vehicle’s progression towards a dangerous area. They may be placed on the side of the road or in the median. These protective barriers are intended to:

Prevent cars from crossing the median in head-on collisions
Stop cars from falling into steep ditches or ravines on the side of the road
Deter vehicles from running into construction zones
Stop out-of-control vehicles

Without guardrails, you do not have the protection that you deserve. If you have been injured as a result of missing guardrails, you should discuss your legal rights with a lack of guardrails attorney.
