Understanding Personal Injury Protection (PIP) in Oregon | Top Oregon injury Attorneys

  Understanding Personal Injury Protection (PIP) in Oregon

Your liability coverage may include Personal Injury Protection ("PIP") or Medical Payments ("Med Pay") benefits. PIP provides a source of payment for YOUR medical bills and some of YOUR wage loss following an auto accident. Further, PIP is no-fault, meaning that it will begin paying on your injuries immediately, rather than waiting for liability to be determined. Similarly, Med Pay provides some coverage for YOUR medical bills. These are called "no-fault" coverages because they pay even if the accident is your fault.

The Crucial Role of Speed in Pedestrian-Vehicle Accidents | Best-Rated Oregon injury Lawyers

  The Crucial Role of Speed in Pedestrian-Vehicle Accidents

Pedestrian fatalities have been increasing in the US, with speed being a major factor. New York City has launched Vision Zero to reduce traffic-related fatalities and injuries, but nationwide implementation of lower speed limits, increased enforcement and other measures is needed to protect pedestrians from speeding cars.
