Buried glass in beach holiday accidents

Those responsible for beaches will often request that people do not bring glass in their picnics for fear of it breaking and becoming part of a holiday accident. This is because glass, or any other sharp object, on a beach can result in serious personal injury if stepped on, particularly if running at the time.

Other sharp objects that may be found buried in sand can include hard plastic packaging, tin cans and even hypodermic needles.

This means it is essential to temper the carefree fun of running wild on a beach with a measure of danger awareness; this can mean checking the area beforehand, wearing solid-soled beach shoes, or choosing to sunbathe instead of running around, for example.

It is also worth finding out who is responsible for the health and safety of a beach. If a holiday accident does occur, this will be the person who will have to be shown to be negligent for damages to be awarded.
