I am going to file something in this case. I don't know what, but something. This practice has got to stop. It is a total abuse of the system. They talk about frivolous lawsuits.

I guess speed does come into play, but that seems broad. I would be interested in knowing more about the connection. Maybe there are more questions to be asked of defendants. http://birmingham.injuryboard.com/automobile-accidents/homicides-predict-traffic-deaths.aspx?googleid=274842#C32760 A comment on Homicides Predict Traffic Deaths Automobile Accidents Jon Lewis Attorney and Lawyer Birmingham Alabama death traffic roadways fatalities University of Michigan Aggression Driving Mike Bryant Sun, 22 Nov 2009 13:57:32 GMT Mike, I had an experience with this kind of accident waiting to happen. My heart doctor has my medical records on line and when I need a refill she could just send the information to the drug store by clicking on send and the prescription was done. The only thing is the drug amount had been decreased but the record showed the full strength Megs. To be able to make sure the drug is the right dose. The whole prescription had to be rewritten. If this was not done or noted at the time of person who was programing the drug to the drug company there could be a problem. It is wise to check all your prescriptions when you get them. Mistakes do happen and no one is aware of how it happened. http://birmingham.injuryboard.com/defective-and-dangerous-products/misfilled-prescriptions-can-have-deadly-consequences.aspx?googleid=271828#C30144 A comment on Mis-filled prescriptions can have deadly consequences Defective & Dangerous Products mis-filled prescriptions presriptions pharmacy Joan Petty Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:37:53 GMT I had read here that it takes 4 mistakes for a prescription to be missed, that really does seem like a lot of errors. It, as you say, thankfully doesn't have a lot of effect, but when it does they are deadly. http://birmingham.injuryboard.com/defective-and-dangerous-products/misfilled-prescriptions-can-have-deadly-consequences.aspx?googleid=271828#C29678 A comment on Mis-filled prescriptions can have deadly consequences Defective & Dangerous Products mis-filled prescriptions presriptions pharmacy Mike Bryant Thu, 01 Oct 2009 22:40:19 GMT You make some very good points. We have had all sorts of examples of ads being questioned or firm names being policed, but very little effort to really look at solicitation. Minnesota did solve one issue by making all statement of injured persons presumptively fraudulent to prevent the hospital statements, but more needs to be done to look at this issue. http://birmingham.injuryboard.com/miscellaneous/nonsolicitation-of-cases-is-it-ever-going-to-be-enforced.aspx?googleid=271070#C28884 A comment on Non-Solicitation of Cases - Is it ever going to be enforced?

As a youngster when we'd drive by a cemetery, my mother would ask a question: "Steve, how many do you think are dead?" I'd twist my head around, quickly surveyed the size of the cemetery and would venture a guess. "300!". She'd answer, "No, I'm pretty sure they are all dead." You gotta love a good old New England upbringing. http://birmingham.injuryboard.com/automobile-accidents/males-die-more-than-females.aspx?googleid=270568#C28408 A comment on Males Die More Than Females Automobile Accidents Jon Lewis Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Males Females Death Steve Lombardi Thu, 10 Sep 2009 04:15:56 GMT
