Firefighter Injured in Car Collision While Investigating Rollover Accident | Seattle Personal Injury Lawyer
via Premier Law Group by jason on 11/21/11
As a Seattle personal injury attorney, I am grateful towards all firefighters and other emergency personnel for their dedication and service to our safety. When disastrous accidents occur leaving first responders with severe injuries, it is devastating for the entire community. The local station of King 5 News reported about a firefighter that was hit by a vehicle after investigating a scene of a roll over accident on southbound I-5. The incident occurred early Sunday morning when South King County firefighters got a call of a rollover accident due to ice on the roads. The scene had been cleared of any injuries and Wynn Loiland was marking the vehicle so that others would know it had been checked when a vehicle, traveling a little too fast for the conditions, lost control and struck Loiland. This second accident occurred in the same spot as the first rollover accident and left Loiland suffering from serious head and facial injuries as well as a collapsed lung and broken arm. Loiland and his family are in the thoughts of us all as he recovers in the hospital.
According to National Fire Protection Association, in 2010, there were around 32,600 firefighters injured while on the job including both fire and non-fire incidences. The courage and determination of firefighters and other public service providers is truly inspirational. This accident just proves that winter weather conditions can cause destructive collisions and driving with care should always be implemented.

Most accidents up there are probably due to slick roads, but distracted driving cal also be a reason. We see this quite often in Atlanta. Can we all just get back to driving?
