This week, the Provincial Government of Alberta will announce that people will no longer be able to sue for personal injuries arising from a car accident. I hate seeing when governments take away the rights of innocent people to best suit their corporate overlords.
This dramatic change to the law means innocent accident victims won’t be able to sue for personal injuries against:
- Drunk Drivers
- Distracted Drivers
- Drugged Up Drivers
- Incapacitated Drivers
- Careless Drivers
- Drivers too high to operate a vehicle
- Driving driving illegally without a license
- Grossly negligent drivers
- Drag Racers
- Stunt Drivers
- Criminals who have stolen a car and who operate their vehicle like it’s Grand Theft Auto causing a serious collision and life threatening injuries. See the serious collision which took place on November 18, 2024 at Bathurst and Wilson in North York where a driver on bail operating a stolen vehicle hit a TTC Bus, injuring 9 innocent individuals.
- Defendants who drive their vehicles so poorly, and so negligently, that they cause death to innocent people who are simply in the wrong place, at the wrong time
- Anyone else who acts a fool behind then wheel and causes injuries to another innocent person
