New York City Head-On Collision Accident Attorneys

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

You can usually spot these accidents rather quickly since the front ends of both cars – even after they’ve been moved to the side of the road – are completely totaled. Windshields are often fully shattered and it’s hard to believe that any medical devices could have helped first responders remove the victims. While it’s tempting to believe that little can...

Speeding Drivers During the COVID-19 Crisis

Too many careless drivers are now either speeding or street racing on New York City roadways. This odd behavior poses a major threat to the safety of those on foot or riding bicycles. It also robs all New Yorkers of the chance to quietly stroll down city streets while going to pick up groceries – or simply get some much-needed exercise. Those breaking the law while speeding need to find more mature ways to cope with their frustrations. The New York Times states in one article that speeds have risen by 288% in one section of town.

Hit-and-Run Accident Alert System Being Rolled Out in NYC

New York City is implementing a new hit-and-run alert system. This system is being modeled after the Amber alert notifications. The system was put into effect this past weekend.
