Litigation: How Our Cars Got Safer

On April 15, 2011, the Washington Post published an op-ed by American Association for Justice President Gibson Vance entitled “How Our Cars Got Safer.” The op-ed is tied to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) report that traffic deaths have dropped to the lowest levels since 1949, even as people rack up more miles on the road. Cars are safer now because of personal injury litigation, which led to countless safety innovations. Read AAJ’s report on auto safety and litigation at: www.justice.org/autosafety.

“We were in a horrific car accident near Seattle in 2004, and Kevin was in a coma with a traumatic brain injury for a month. Our brother-in-law in South Carolina recommended Maria. She met us at the hospital and was ready to take on our case. She was reassuring, honest, and straightforward. Her communication skills are great, and she is confident in what she is doing. We felt she gave 120 percent to our case, and we so appreciated that. We had such a good experience working with Maria.” Kristina and Kevin Roberts
