Tourist Injuries in Kissimmee

Kissimmee is a gateway to major Central Florida attractions, including Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, and other parks and resorts. Visitors often travel from out of state or abroad, and they expect to have a safe and enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, tourists can suffer serious injuries when businesses, property owners, or drivers fail to protect their safety.

Amusement Park Accidents

Amusement parks must follow strict safety protocols, and failure to do so can result in severe harm. Examples of amusement park-related injuries include:

• Ride malfunctions caused by mechanical failure or poor maintenance
• Improper operation of rides by untrained or inattentive staff members
• Slip and fall accidents on wet walkways or poorly maintained park grounds
• Injuries during crowd surges, parades, or transportation within the park

Visitors may face challenges when taking legal action against companies located in Florida, which is why local legal representation is essential. Our lawyers can handle the details of the case while communicating remotely with clients and keeping them informed about their cases.

Car Accidents Involving Tourists

Tourists who are unfamiliar with local roads may be more likely to be involved in car accidents. Rental car collisions, shuttle bus accidents, and rideshare crashes may affect out-of-state drivers. The attorneys at The Doan Law Firm are experienced in handling complex jurisdictional issues and insurance claims involving non-residents who are injured while visiting Kissimmee. We will work to ensure that our clients are fully compensated for damages caused by negligent drivers or other parties.

Hotel and Resort Injuries

Tourists staying in Kissimmee's many resorts and hotels may suffer injuries due to unsafe premises, including:

• Unsafe balconies or stairways
• Inadequate security leading to assaults or thefts
• Swimming pool accidents or drownings
• Elevator and escalator malfunctions

These businesses have a duty to protect guests from foreseeable harm, and when they fail to do so, they may be held liable for the injuries sustained.

Car Accidents and Driver Negligence in Kissimmee

In addition to tourist-related incidents, car accidents are a leading cause of serious injuries throughout Kissimmee and the surrounding areas. With congested intersections, high-speed roads, and a mix of local and out-of-town drivers, collisions may take place, and they are usually caused by negligent drivers. Serious injuries can occur in the following types of accidents:

• Head-On Collisions: These accidents may be caused by wrong-way driving or distracted driving, and they may result in severe or fatal injuries.
• Rear-End Crashes: These collisions can be especially dangerous at high speeds or when commercial vehicles collide with smaller cars or trucks.
• T-Bone Accidents: These crashes may take place at intersections when drivers run red lights or fail to yield.
• Rollover Accidents: Speeding or overcorrection may cause vehicles to roll over in a collision, potentially leading to crush injuries or ejection from the vehicle.
• Pedestrian and Bicycle Collisions: These accidents are especially common in tourist-heavy areas with foot traffic and limited visibility.

Driver negligence is a major contributing factor in these accidents. Common negligent behaviors include:

• Distracted driving, which may include texting, eating, or using in-vehicle navigation while driving
• Speeding in excess of posted speed limits or driving too fast for conditions
• Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, which can significantly increase the risk of serious accidents
• Aggressive or reckless driving, such as tailgating, unsafe lane changes, or road rage
• Driver fatigue, which can be common among rideshare drivers or tourists who are unfamiliar with local roads
