\"\"The Press and Journal<\/a><\/em> has reported that an elderly man was almost killed having been involved in a road traffic accident<\/a>.\u00a0 It is said that Mr Mackie was airlifted to hospital with potentially fatal injuries after a trailer collided with his vehicle near Aberdeen having become detached from the tractor that was pulling it.\u00a0 It was later revealed that Mr Mackie sustained a collapsed lung and had broken both his legs.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Mr Mackie received surgery and treatment and was kept in hospital for nearly three months.\u00a0 As a result, Mr Mackie claims that the accident has changed his life, that he now fears driving, and that his days in the garden are now at a premium.\u00a0 As such Mr Mackie has recently won compensation totalling around \u00a3115,000<\/strong> for his injuries and other losses resulting from the accident.<\/p>\n

Road traffic accidents<\/a> are unfortunately a part of everyday life in the modern world we live in.\u00a0 Whether they are major or minor, people can sustain all sorts of injuries in road traffic accidents<\/strong>.\u00a0 Where the accident occurs through no fault of your own, or even if you are partly to blame, it is likely that you may be able to make a claim for compensation<\/a>.\u00a0 It is important then that you seek expert advice from a personal injury lawyer<\/a> with experience of dealing with road traffic accident claims<\/strong>.
\n<\/p>\n

The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the severity of your injuries and your subsequent losses; for example any loss of earning resulting from time off work that you have been forced to have due to the seriousness of your injuries.\u00a0 It is unlikely that most people who have been involved in a road traffic accident<\/a> will be awarded compensation on the same par as Mr Mackie or anywhere near that figure unless you suffer similar serious injuries; but this is not to say you are not entitled to some compensation.\u00a0 At The Injury Lawyers<\/a> our professional lawyers do everything they can to ensure that you always receive the maximum compensation you deserve.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Our legal advice is free, so you have nothing to lose in seeking our advice. \u00a0What\u2019s more, The Injury Lawyers always make sure you keep 100% of any compensation you obtain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
