Our thoughts are with the family of the two-year-old child killed in this extremely tragic event in Fort Myers. A fatal car accident will take place approximately every three hours in Florida. Fatal car accidents occur not only on streets and highways but also in areas such as driveways and parking lots. Regardless of the location, catastrophic injuries can occur any time a person gets behind the wheel. Care must be taken at all times to reduce the possibility of a catastrophic event from occurring.
