Common Causes Of Boating Accidents In Missouri
In Missouri, there are several causes of boating accidents:
- Boating under the influence (BUI): Operating a boat while intoxicated is illegal and extremely dangerous.
- Collisions with other boats: Crowded waterways increase the risk of crashes between vessels, often due to reckless or distracted operation.
- Striking docks or stationary objects: High speeds or poor visibility can lead to accidents involving docks, buoys or rocks.
- Accidents involving swimmers: Swimmers in or near boating areas risk serious harm if boaters are inattentive.
These incidents often result in injuries ranging from broken bones to traumatic brain injuries. If you have been hurt in a boating crash, a knowledgeable lawyer can help you determine your next steps.
