According to recent data taken from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, approximately 12 percent of all interstate highway deaths are caused by a vehicle using the shoulder. This means that an estimated 600 people a year are killed—and thousands more are injured—while making emergency stops off the highway.

When you’re faced with an emergency situation on the highway and are unable to exit, your best option is to move onto the shoulder. Unfortunately, careless, oblivious, and reckless drivers can still put you in a lot of danger, despite your efforts to protect yourself.

When you have done everything right, but you or a loved one is seriously injured in a collision on the shoulder anyway, you could be entitled to compensation from the driver who caused the crash. Let us evaluate your case in order to determine if the other driver acted negligently and is liable for your losses. Don’t allow someone else’s mistake to disrupt your future.

These asbestos disposal bags are yellow and are 35 x 60 in size. They are made industrial weight polyethylene.

Highways were designed with shoulders to allow a space for vehicles to pull off in an emergency. So, what is it about shoulders that are so risky? The following are factors in many road shoulder crashes:

BC Regulations require you to double bag your asbestos waste using the asbestos disposal bags and sealing each of the asbestos disposal bags with duct tape. Asbestos can never be disposed of in the regular trash, even if it is properly labeled.

Highway shoulders are exceedingly dangerous places for both pedestrians and motorists alike. Although they’re specifically meant for emergency situations and emergency vehicles, hundreds of people are killed every year on highway shoulders while awaiting assistance, changing a tire, hooking up to a tow truck, or dealing with a police officer.
