In 2018 there was an estimated 35, 746 fatal and personal injury collisions in Ontario. Unfortunately, this means that car accidents are more common than many would think. To make matters worse, if you have been in an accident, the legislation and court system can make navigating your claim difficult and confusing. This is further compounded by the fact that such accidents are often traumatic, and the moments afterward can be a blur, including feelings of fear, anger, frustration, and anxiety.
This article will explain, in a simple and straightforward manner, what your legal options are after a motor vehicle accident.

An injured person should be aware of the strict notice period found in the Municipal Act. An injured person has 10 days to provide written notice to the municipality. This notice should include the injury, identity of the injured person, the date, the time, and location of the fall. An injured person who does not put the city on notice within the timelines prescribed by the Municipal Act may be barred from starting an action for the recovery of damages.

Mental illness in particular is growing in prominence as a cause for a short-term or long-term disability leave. According to Manulife Financial Group, disability claims based on psychiatric injury, primarily depression, are growing at the fastest rate. Among youth in particular (15 to 24 years old), mental illness related disability is the most common type of disability.
Given the prevalence of disability leaves, many employers will offer policies of Short-Term and Long-Term Disability. Short-Term and Long-Term Disability Benefits will protect a person’s monthly earnings in the event of disability. Disability benefits are simply income replacement insurance in the event of injury or illness.

A traumatic brain injury may be triggered even in the absence of a serious blow to the head.

Traumatic brain injuries can also be a consequence of a slip and fall or a motor vehicle accident. An injured person need not bump their head to experience a traumatic brain injury. Even a violent headshake could cause serious injury to the brain.

With the beautiful weather comes the desire for Torontonians to enjoy the great outdoors, and it is important to be mindful of the dangers posed to pedestrians and cyclists.

Active transportation collisions are most likely to occur at intersections and at major arterial crossings. Toronto ranks poorly amongst other Canadian cities for road safety for pedestrians and cyclists, and the estimated cost of collisions is over $60 million a year.
