Construction Worker Hit on Los Angeles Highway by Vehicle

At every construction site in Los Angeles, people in their cars and trucks are required to slow down to reduced posted speeds.  While all drivers are supposed to obey these reduced speeds, some drivers fail to follow these regulations putting other motorists and the construction workers in danger.  This is especially true on Los Angeles Highways where the speed limit is 65 mph where may drivers drive over the speed limit.  As the highway lanes shift, cars may drive over the lines and may hit construction workers despite safety equipment.

As serious injuries can result from these highway vehicle accidents, and as these accidents are preventable, the people who caused them should be held accountable for the injuries they caused.  For construction workers who have been hit by a vehicle while they were working on a roadway or highway, the driver of the vehicle will often drive away, escalating the accident into a hit-and-run accident.

Were you injured when you were hit by a vehicle on the highway?  Drivers of these vehicles are responsible for disobeying the construction warning signs, and they, as well as their insurance company, can be held accountable for your construction accident injuries.  As the typical injuries suffered in these highway vehicle accidents, you will have extensive medical bills as well as lost wages during which time you are attempting to recover.
