Driving along the motorway is hazardous enough without the fear of objects and debris falling into your path. Even a piece of seemingly harmless debris can be dangerous if left on the motorway and can lead to a compensation claim for personal injuries.
While the Highways Agency regularly patrols motorways to check for any such hazards, it only takes a moment for a poorly secured load on the back of a van to come loose and cause mayhem for other motorists. Not only will the loose cargo itself be a problem, but the swerving actions it will provoke from other motorists in order to avoid the objects may also be dangerous to other road users..
In 2009, a pensioner won nearly £4000 after he suffered personal injuries from crashing into a mattress as he drove on a motorway in Glasgow. The bed part had come off a van after it had been poorly secured to the back of the vehicle.
The crash was said to have left the driver with personal injuries and damage to his car for which the van driver was ordered to pay compensation after he admitted liability for the accident.
Although the pensioner was not badly injured in the incident and no other vehicles were involved, the scenario could have been much worse. Had the crash caused the pensioner's car to spin into another motorist, the consequences could have been tragic.
This, therefore, highlights how alert and focused you must stay while on the roads. Although motorway driving can be monotonous, it only takes a split second for circumstances to change so you need to be fully aware of what's going on at all times.
