Ottawa car accident : 4 teenage girls suffer serious permanent injury.
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Ottawa Injury and Accidents, Personal Injury Claims on September 6th, 2011
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth..4 Ottawa teenagers were taken to an Ottawa hospital after a car accident on Highway 417, southeast of Ottawa Sunday morning. Ottawa paramedics arrived at 1:27 a.m. to the Ottawa accident scene near the highway near Boundary Road, where a car with 4 girls suffered serious personal injury. Paramedics from Ottawa and Prescott-Russell treated all four patients, taking them to two different Ottawa hospitals. One passenger suffered a serious, but non-life threatening facial injury and was in serious but stable condition when she arrived at the Ottawa hospital. A 17-year old female was also listed in serious but stable condition, and the two other 17-year-olds in the vehicle were taken to hospital in stable condition. My hope is that all 4 girls recover from this terrible accident and I hope to soon report that they will recover fully.

Ottawa Glebe Collegiate Teen Drowned in Swimming Accident
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Injury and Accidents, wrongful death on June 21st, 2011
Ottawa Area Water Accident..The family of Hay Mu Tha Kyu and students at Glebe Collegiate Institute are mourning the loss of one of their own. The school was mourning Hay Mu Tha Kyu, 15, who jumped off a cliff into Charleston Lake while out swimming with friends Saturday and didn’t surface. His body was found yesterday afternoon.
Hay Mu Tha Kyu is remembered as an energetic boy and a talented basketball and volleyball teammate. Hay Mu Tha Kyu was very popular at Glebe Collegiate and had a large circle of friends. Some of his friends reported to the Ottawa Citizen that people were drawn to him . Hay Mu Tha Kyu was a young boy when his family fled war in Burma to a refugee camp in Mae La Oon, Thailand. That’s where another friend, Pahgalay Kyu, 18, got to know him. Pahgalay Kyu became friends with Hay Mu Tha Kyu during the years they spent at the refugee camp. Once both families came to Canada, their friendship continued, and they spoke daily through text messaging.
Kyu had been swimming with two other young males when he jumped off the rock cliff at about 6:45 p.m. Saturday and never resurfaced. His family was there when the body was recovered.
This very sad accident serves as a reminder to us all that we are not invincible and accidents can happen at any time. Please enjoy this summer and all this beautiful weather, BUT BE SAFE !! My thoughts go out to everyone who was touched by Hay Mu Tha Kyu, especially his family.

Ottawa Accident Avoided Thanks to Smart Driving, Ottawa Lawyer David Hollingsworth
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Ottawa Injury and Accidents on May 25th, 2011
Ottawa Motor Vehicle Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth…Just read that a peculiar Ottawa accident occurred yesterday morning. A shovel came off of what is assumed to be a truck, the shovel landed on the vehicle behind it. The shovel landed flat on the windshield severely damaging it. The driver of the car, a woman, was thankfully unharmed. She had the composure to safely pull over to the side of the road without causing any accidents. Thank goodness, had the shovel landed differently on the windshield the woman may have suffered serious injuries as opposed to a scare. It is imperative that driver’s securely tie down any objects that can come off during transportation. Please drive safely out there !

2 Ottawa Car Accident Innes Road results in serious personal injuries
Ontario Injury Lawyers, Ottawa Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth…The rain outside today made driving very difficult. …Two Ottawa car accidents occurred today within hours of each other at the exact same spot on Innes Road. My thoughts go out to everyone involved in these Ottawa accidents. I hope they can recover fully from these personal injuries…
The first Ottawa car accident was between a minivan and a car happened in the early afternoon just east of Frank Kenny Road. The female driver of the car had to have her door cut off so she could be rescued, and the passenger side door suffered significant damage. Both drivers were taken to an Ottawa hospital to be treated for personal injuries.
Later, this afternoon at approximately 4:20 p.m., Ottawa rescue workers responded to a second Ottawa accident at nearly the same place on Innes road. According to Ottawa firefighters, the second Ottawa accident was between a car and a pickup truck, and was very similar to the first to car accident. The car sustained severe damage to the passenger side, the only one inside was the 30 year old driver who had to be extracted. She suffered very serious personal injuries including a mild head injury as well as a chest injury. The male driver of the truck sustained minor personal injuries.
With 2 Ottawa accidents occurring at the exact same spot in such a short time, I can only wonder if perhaps a review of that area needs to be done.. What are your thoughts?

Avoiding Ontario Accidents , Lawyer David Hollingsworth Shares Highway Driving Safety Tips
Ottawa Lawyers, Ottawa Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth…Many of you will be heading out of town for this long weekend. Whatever you may be celebrating this weekend, Passover, Easter, Ridvan etc…I want to wish everyone a safe and happy long weekend. If you are hitting Ontario highways, here are a few things to keep in mind to avoid a car accident in Ontario.
-David Hollingsworth, Ontario Accident Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer
Avoiding Ontario Car Accidents: Follow Ontario Speed Limits…
For your safety and the safety of others, always obey the speed limit posted on Ontario highway signs along Ontario roads and highways, but more importantly always drive a speed that allows you stop safely. Try to drive at the same speed as traffic surrounding you without going over the speed limit. In Ontario cities, towns, villages and suburb areas where there are no posted speed limit signs, the maximum speed is 50 km/h. Elsewhere the maximum speed limit is Ontario is 80 km/h.
Ontario Accidents: Highway Driving Safety Tips:
Slow down in bad weather, in heavy traffic or in a construction zone; Slow down at night, especially on dark roads; Always follow at a safe distance, at least 2 car lengths behind the vehicle in front of you.
If you are charged for speeding at 50 km/h over the speed limit, Ontario police will suspend your licence and impound your vehicle at the roadside. Please be careful when driving through Ontario construction areas. To avoid an accident in Ontario, slow down when approaching work zones and be ready to stop at a seconds notice. Most importantly, be patient if there is traffic . If your lane is blocked , yield to the driver coming from the opposite direction. When it is clear, move slowly and carefully around the accident. Use common sense. Observing speed limits means more than obeying the posted speed: it means reacting to road conditions. When it’s raining or foggy, when ice is on the road, when traffic is heavy or when road construction is ahead, adjust your driving speed accordingly.
Ontario Car Accidents: Driving Safely on the Right….
Watch for signs on Ontario highways that read “Left Lane For Passing Only.” Slower Traffic Keep to Right: These signs let you know that the left lane on an Ontario highway is not a “fast” lane; it is a passing lane. If you pass someone, move into the right lane once you’ve safely cleared the vehicle. Slowing down the flow of traffic by continuing to drive in the left lane is not only dangerous but can result in a fine in Ontario.
Ontario Highways Accidents: Truck Accidents
Trucks can weigh close to 85,000 pounds and take extra time to stop. Drive cautiously on a highway that has several large trucks. Maintain a safe following distance. Don’t squeeze between trucks and the curb. Trucks make wide right turns, and the truck driver may not see you.When passing a truck, don’t move back into your lane until you can see both truck headlights in your rearview mirror. Make sure to give yourself enough room. Trucks have blind spots of up to 20 feet in front of the tractor, anywhere along the sides of the trailer and up to 200 feet behind the trailer. Keep that in mind. Never drive behind a truck that is backing up.
Avoid Ontario Highway Accidents by Moving Over..
When you approach an emergency vehicle with flashing lights, move a lane away , or slow down well below the posted speed limit.
Some Ontario Highway Accidents Could be Avoided From Simply Resting…
It takes a split second to lose your focus. Maybe you can’t stop yawning? Your thoughts wander or you’re drifting between lanes? You need to be alert ! Get plenty of rest before you hit Ontario highways. Get out of your vehicle and stretch your legs every so often. Take a break for 20 minutes at each stop. Yes, it will add time to your trip..but what is more important? Try to avoid driving between midnight and 6 a.m. Never drink and drive - small amounts of alcohol can impair your judgment and your reaction time.
Stop at Ontario Highway Rest Areas….
Take a break and advantage of the Ontario Highway Rest Areas and Ontario Information Centres. At most stops, you can get information on restaurants, road conditions, gas stations, snacks, area tourists stops etc…plus most often they have picnic tables and washrooms…a great place to stop for a packed lunch or snack.
Please, drive safely out there !!!

Avoid an accident and personal injury- watch out for black ice.
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Personal Injury Claims on March 20th, 2011
Ottawa accidents and black ice. Ottawa injury lawyer -avoiding personal injury.
It’s the last day of March break and it’s awfully cold out there today. I’m just about to go out and hit the slopes with my son. I’ve been skiing for a couple of days now and I’m sore and stiff ! Regardless, my son is excited, so off we go ! I hope my muscles forgive me someday. Although it’s sunny out there..there is still a chill and with that comes black ice.
There are too many injuries in Ottawa each year due to black ice. Generally, drivers are caught unprepared. Black ice, sometimes known as “glare ice” or “clear ice” is deadly because it is difficult to see – it can sneak up on you when you least suspect. Ottawa Personal Injury lawyer David Hollingsworth shares his thoughts on how you can drive safely through the Winter season and practice safe driving habits.
Each year, there are an incredible number of Ottawa automobile accidents due to the ice conditions here in Ottawa and in Eastern Ontario. The goal is to establish safe driving habits that will protect you when you drive during black-ice season. As a preliminary, always strive to stay alert – this means that since black ice can be anywhere, it is wise to remember driving carefully, with all attention on your surroundings.
More specifically, you can stay tuned to weather and news reports that will advise drivers on particularly bad days and intersections that require careful attention. Black ice is not truly black, though it is virtually invisible to the driver’s eye, so sharp turns, and busy intersections, for example, will require extra caution to safeguard your safety and well-being. “Most accident victims don’t notice the black ice on the road until it is way too late,” says Ottawa personal injury lawyer David Hollingsworth. “You have to automatically assume that if there is a slight chill in the air, there will likely be ice, SO please… slow down and avoid car accidents.”
