Baby Slings Product Recall

The San Diego Union Tribune reported yesterday that a San Diego maker of baby products has recalled more than 1 million baby slings. This was due to the request from Federal Regulators who linked the baby slings to three suffocating deaths.

The company Infantino based in Mira Mesa is replacing the "SlingRider" and WendyBellisimo" sling carriers with a different type of infant carrier.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission warned that people should cease using these slings with immediate effect. It is possible that a little baby could suffocate within minutes and not be able to cry out for help if the material blocks the mouth and nose of the baby.

Contact Personal Injury Attorney Allan S Field for any questions.

Slip and Fall accident

Most slip and fall accidents happen in commercial locations. The highest percentage of slip and fall accidents in California occur in restaurants. The second most common location for commercial slip and fall accidents in the state is a grocery store.

Grocery stores are familiar with the slip and fall rules and, as a result, they have procedures in place in order to protect their customers from injury and also to protect themselves from possible liability.

Since shoppers are usually not looking for hazards, most people believe they are entitled to recover every time they fall in a public commercial location since it is not their fault. The reality is that this is not always true.

Allan Field can help you.

Cell Phone Laws

Most states have had cell phone laws against using cell phones while driving a motor vehicle. But I still see many motorists talking away with their phone against their ear. Hello!! You need to have a hands free device like a blue tooth, a head set or installed into your vehicle radio-sound system.

Similar laws also apply to texting while driving.

It's illegal. It's unsafe. Stop doing it. Would you be happy if somebody else causes a serious injury accident with you while they were yapping on the cell phone? Well then you don't stop doing it to. When you enter your vehicle engage your hands free device. Do not answer the phone of your forgot to do that. If you need to make a call, pull over in a safe place and complete your call.

Do not get distracted by call or text or other that could cause an accident. Be safe.

Motorcycle Accidents

More people are commuting with motorcycles daily. Many motorists often fail to notice a motorcycle or to heed them the same respect as any other vehicle. Motorcycles are fast and distance and speed can be misjudged.

If you are a motorcyclist you will know that cars often do not even see you. You also know that you need to drive defensively becasue if you are involved in an accident the chances are that you will be severely hurt since you do not have the protective shell of a vehicle or seat belts or air bags.
