Inexperience, Inattention, Alcohol Cause Boating Accidents
Boats, ski boats, Jet Skis and other watercraft offer opportunities for fun on the waters around Galveston and the Texas Gulf coast. They can also lead to accidents with serious injuries. People operating boats and personal watercraft may fail to properly navigate around other water traffic.
Inexperience, lack of knowledge about water navigation, distractions in and outside the watercraft and alcohol can lead to dangerous boating accidents. A driver pulling a skier may fail to watch the skier and the boat's direction. A Jet Ski driver may plow into a group of swimmers while looking in another direction. Catching a swimmer or skier in a boat's propeller can be lethal. Boating while intoxicated is as dangerous as DWI on the road.
A personal injury attorney can talk to you and to witnesses to get the full story of a boating accident. Talk to a lawyer as soon as possible, while the evidence and the witnesses' memories are fresh.
