What is Construction Negligence?
When a construction crew fails to keep the area around their construction site safe for drivers, an act of construction negligence has been committed. It is also considered negligence if workers create hazards in the road they are building. Some examples of both these forms of negligence include:
- Falling objects near the construction site
- Creating roads with uneven pavement
- Construction debris left in the roadway
- Water pooling near the construction site
Fighting Back
A person who has been injured in a car accident caused by construction negligence may have grounds for a Chicago personal injury lawsuit. This is a way to potentially win compensation for medical expenses, lost wages due to missed work, and physical and emotional pain. It can also help prevent future accidents by sending a message to construction companies that they will be penalized for negligence.
