How do you avoid backover child accidents? Part IV | Ohio child accident injury lawyers

Our Ohio child accident lawyers handle cases involving children and accidents on a daily basis. One of the most devastating types of accidents we see is when a parent or caretaker accidentally hits a child in their own driveway.

Rollover accidents can be prevented. Read the following tips on how to avoid potentially fatal rollover accidents, from Injury Board magazine:

1. Install cross view mirrors, audible collision detectors, rearview cameras, or other type of backup detection device.

2. Watch when backing out down steep inclines - inclines and larger SUVs or trucks make it even harder to see kids who may be around your vehicle.

3. Make sure that all passengers - especially children - have left the car after it is parked.

4. Keep vehicles locked at all times, even when the car is in the garage or driveway.

5. Be extra careful about keeping kids safe during hectic travelling times, such as schedule changes, holidays, or times of crisis.
