Kansas Amusement Park Regulation Possible- Finally

3/18/2017

0 Comments

 
Months ago we discussed the disturbing fact that Kansas had no true amusement park regulations. Lack of regulation had resulted in serious injury and the death of patrons. Since that time​ the HB 2389 amendment has been introduced. This bill seeks to address the many areas where current regulation is lacking. 

What does this bill seek?
  • Increased permit and insurance requirements for amusement park rides
  • DOL notification, within 72 hours, of any serious injuries
  • Increased inspector qualifications and documentation requirements
  • Construction, maintenance, operation, and repair standards established
  • Increased penalties and fines for failure to meet standards

Does this mean no injuries/deaths with happen?

No. Should the amendment pass there will finally be amusement park regulation, in Kansas, that holds owners/operators to a standard currently non-existent. This doesn't mean injuries, or even death, will not occur. Rather, there will be a decreased likelihood of injury due to pre- and post-operation standards/inspection.

What should I do if I am hurt at an amusement park?

You should call Attorney T. Morton @ 913-602-7288 or complete this FORM, right away. There are a number of important steps you must take to preserve your claim. Our consultation is free.

HB 2104 - Auto Insurance Amendment Fails

3/18/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
This week HB 2104 failed to advance. This bill proposed an amendment to the uninsured motorist coverage provision requirements and sought to increase the minimum policy limit for bodily injury. It is probable that, although eligible for study session, this bill will not be reconsidered this session. 

What are the current auto insurance minimums?
Liability insurance minimums are $25,000/$50,000/$25,000:
  • $25,000 for bodily injury, per person
  • $50,000 maximum per incident
  • $25,000 for damage to another person's property
Kansas is a "no-fault" state. Your car insurance policy must have PIP (personal injury protection), with the following minimums:
  • $4,5oo per person for medical costs
  • $900 per month for one year of disability and loss of income
  • $25 per day for in-home services
  • $2,000 for funeral, cremation or burial expenses
  • $4,500 for rehabilitation
The uninsured/underinsured motorist policy is $25,000/$50,000:
  • $25,000 for bodily injury, per person
  • $50,000 maximum per incident

What does this mean for you? For now, there will be no changes in the Kansas mandatory minimum coverage you must carry. That also means, should you be injured in an accident, the amount you may recover from the at-fault party's insurance stays the same. 

If you are injured in an auto accident this bill's failure does not mean that you cannot collect beyond the current state minimum insurance coverage amounts. Call Attorney T. Morton today to find out how you can seek fair compensation, beyond the standard policy limits, at 913-602-7288 or complete this FORM. Consultations are free.
