Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims event held in Preston

Personal injury solicitors Preston extend their sympathies to anyone who has had to make a road traffic accident claim in the town, following an emotional service in the city's County Hall on November 17^th.

The service marked World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, and was one service of thousands held internationally. The day aims to honour the hard work of emergency service personnel and to mark the lives of everyone who has died in motor vehicle accidents.

Friends and families of people across Lancashire attended the service, and were welcomed by chairman of Lancashire County Council Michael Devaney and representatives from the ambulance, police and fire services and from Blackburn with Darwen Council and Blackpool Council.

No win no fee solicitors Preston hope people took the opportunity of the remembrance day to consider their responsibilities towards other road users and to take every effort to prevent road traffic accidents from occurring.

Mr Devaney said that every road death is a tragedy, with lasting consequences for the victim's friends and family.

Personal injury solicitors Preston note that too many accidents are caused by irresponsible and careless driving, including tailgating, failing to use indicators properly or manoeuvring without looking. The UK has been fortunate to see prolonged reductions in the number of deaths and serious injuries on its roads, but drivers must not become complacent, with certain road users such as cyclists facing increasing dangers and increasing death rates.

The World Day of Remembrance for RoadTraffic Victims is organised by UK-based road safety charity RoadPeace and occurs on the third Sunday of every November. It has now been running for 20 years, and in this time, has taken off to see events taking place in an increasing number of nations on almost every continent.

If people have been injured in motor vehicle accidents they were not to blame for, they should speak to no win no fee solicitors Preston before accepting any money from insurance companies. Insurers may try to offer victims less money than they deserve, but personal injury solicitors Preston can help them recover all the compensation they need to get their lives back on track.
