New York City Garbage Truck Accidents Remain Deadly

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Commercial Vehicule Accident, Garbage Truck Accident, Truck Accidents, Vehicle Accidents

Too many accidents involving New York City garbage trucks end badly, even when no one dies. This remains true since many of these large sanitation trucks weigh about 72,000 pounds. Pedestrians, motorcyclists, bicyclists -- and even passenger vehicle occupants -- rarely escape major injuries after being hit by one of these massive vehicles. Even smaller garbage trucks weighing between 50,000 and 60,000 pounds often wield deadly force when they hit the average American passenger car that weighs between about 2,600 and 4,400 pounds. One of the most tragic New York City garbage truck accidents to occur during recent years happened in...

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Accidents, Semi Truck Accidents, Spinal Cord Injury, Tractor Trailer Accidents, Truck Accidents, Vehicle Accidents

The Mayo Clinic likens the rubbery cushions or discs found between back vertebrae to jelly donuts, in that they encase a soft center in a tougher exterior. When the tougher exterior tears, some of the softer material may push out of the disc.

Road Rage: Still A Major Problem in New York & Many Other States

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Accident Injuries, Car Accidents

Since many of us are still driving less due to the pandemic, we have forgotten how common road rage (or aggressive driving) has become both locally and elsewhere in the United States. Instead of maturely working through our unresolved frustrations, too many of us keep expressing our pent-up anger while driving – often overreacting to the minor traffic offenses of others. Last summer, a 26-year-old man in Brooklyn died after being shot in the torso during a road rage incident. That tragic event unfolded while a shooter, traveling in a black SUV, and the other driver was taking Exit 1 off...
