Ottawa Law Firms – Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth…As an Ontario Personal Injury Lawyer, I applaud and support the efforts made by the Ottawa Police to make our Ottawa streets a safer place….The Ottawa Police Service will participate in Canada Road Safety Week which runs from May 16 to May 23. In 2010, there were 30 fatal car accidents that resulted in the deaths of 34 people in the Ottawa community. Consequently, the Ottawa Police have made traffic safety a high priority through various initiatives. One program the Ottawa Police have put in place is the RIDE (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) Programs during the evenings of Thursday May 19th and Friday May 20th. The RIDE Program in Ontario is led by the police community which runs all year long and involves random police spot checks where vehicles are stopped and drivers are checked for impaired driving.
Ottawa Police are also actively engaged in Project E.R.A.S.E. (Eliminate Racing Activity on Streets Everywhere) a collaborative effort of 22 police services, the Ontario Ministry of Transportation and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment whose goal is to change poor driver behavior through education and strategic enforcement. Sadly, since 1999 48 people have been killed in Ontario as a result of street racing activities . In addition, excessive speed continues to be the leading contributing factor in fatal car accidents.
During Canada’s Road Safety Week, Ottawa police will focus on 4 issues:
- Drinking and driving.
- Seat belts and child restraints.
- Aggressive driving, driving at unsafe speeds, following too closely or running red lights and stop signs.
- Distracted Driving
As an Ottawa personal injury lawyer and along with the Ottawa Police, encourage everyone on our roadways to work towards making our Ottawa roads and Ontario roads the safest in the world. Let’s do it Ottawa !

From Ottawa Lawyer David Hollingsworth: To the family of Dylan Heisel: I’m so very sorry for the loss of your very young son…
SPENCERVILLE — Prescott OPP officers have released the name of an area teen killed in a single-vehicle accident early Sunday morning. Dylan Heisel, 18, of Spencerville was pronounced dead at the scene of an accident that occurred on County Road 44 near Goodwin Road about 2:30 a.m. Sunday. Const. Rob Prophet said a 2000 Montana van carrying three occupants was travelling south on County Road 44 when it left the roadway to the west, hit a culvert, entered a ditch and then struck a tree where it came to a stop facing north. The other two occupants, both 18, suffered serious injuries and were taken to hospital in Ottawa for treatment. Police were not releasing their names Monday afternoon and provided no update on their condition. County Road 44 was closed during an investigation by the OPP’s technical traffic collision unit and reopened about 12:30 p.m. Sunday. The investigation is continuing.
