Parking lots can be confusing spaces. Whether they’re empty or packed, they always seem difficult to maneuver through because they’re tight lanes with so many spaces surrounding them. On top of that, there are so many obstacles to look out for—moving vehicles, people backing out, pedestrians, and objects like carts.

Since it can be so overwhelming in a parking lot, it can make it even more difficult to back out of your parking space. But what happens when you hit another car that’s driving through the lot while backing out? Who has the right of way? We have the answer.

Commercial truck drivers have the sometimes grueling job of driving across their own states, other states, or the span of the country to deliver goods to the correct destination. This could seem like a cut and dried job, but it isn’t—there are plenty of regulations that they have to follow, like hours.

Truckers are only allowed to spend so much time on the road when they’re hauling. They have to abide by federal hours of service regulations that are intended to keep them awake behind the wheel. Let’s take a look at how much time truck drivers spend on the road.

The most recent research by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety shows that road debris is a factor in nearly 10,000 car accident injuries each year in the United States. To better understand why road debris is a danger to motorists on roads and highways, we’ll look first at what can be considered road debris, and then examine who is liable if flying debris hits your car.

If you have further questions, get in touch with a car accident attorney with experience in complicated motor vehicle accident cases. Our auto collision attorneys at The Solomon Law Group are available to answer questions in the Columbia, South Carolina area.

It happened to over 155 million people in the year 2020 alone. In a single year, it happened as people accessed Microsoft accounts, joined Zoom meetings, logged into Facebook, booked Marriott and MGM Resorts rooms, traveled by Amtrak, and shopped at Home Depot. Data breaches have put the confidential information of innumerable users and consumers at risk, often when they least expect it. But data breaches are a relatively new phenomenon, and many victims are not aware of exactly what happens when personal data is exposed during a breach, or what can be done about it.

Some may argue that the scenic views of the beautiful state of South Carolina are best appreciated from the back of a motorcycle. Those who ride motorcycles, whether for practical transportation or for pure enjoyment, know that a motorcycle is more than just a way to get around. The rider community is built on a shared affinity for the vehicle, and sometimes even more so on the culture and camaraderie that grow out of this pursuit. But most people are also aware of the dangers that motorcyclists face, particularly as bikers share the roads with much larger cars, trucks, tractor-trailers, and other enclosed vehicles.

At The Solomon Law Group, we pride ourselves on giving back to our community however we can. In 2018, we decided to start a scholarship that lets us give back to the community and enhance our nation’s ability to educate future generations. Our campaign was a tremendous success so we have been happy to continue it. The last submission period for our scholarship– Fall 2021– just came to a close. We were truly humbled by the amount of applications we received as well as the overall quality of every essay.

Thank you to every student who applied!

We’re pleased to announce we’ve chosen a winner.
