Amy Swanson injured in Winthrop mobility scooter accident

CRASH INVESTIGATION

Mobility scooter users face significantly higher risks than other road users compared to cyclists and pedestrians.

Minnesota’s aging population and increased mobility scooter use likely mirror national trends showing growing accident rates among this vulnerable population, though specific state data remains limited in public reporting.

“Road conditions, visibility, and lighting are all possible contributing factors considered and examined,” said Candice Bond, an experienced attorney and Managing Partner with Bond Legal.

“An accident reconstruction team is sometimes needed to help piece together what happened. All of these resources are necessary for helping clients receive monetary compensation for damages or a loss following a collision,” said Bond.

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Amy Swanson may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim pending an investigation.

Bond said, “Injured victims involved in a collision often seek a personal injury claim to cover the cost of medical bills, future medical care, loss of income, emotional trauma, and pain and suffering.

“Insurance companies can be notoriously unconcerned with the mounting costs that an injured party may accrue. An attorney can help. We protect the victims of these tragedies daily, forcing the insurance companies to pay for their mistakes,” she added.
