Parking areas for cars are often never considered as a place where you can get a serious injury, but you can be injured in these environments quite easily. Overall, cars are parked in parking areas while the drivers and owners are off going on an errand, going to work, or shopping at the local stores. It is assumed, isn’t it, that the parking area will be free from debris, hazards and dangers, right? Well, sometimes the people who own and operate a parking area are negligent and do not maintain the parking areas at all, which will be hazardous for anyone using those parking lots. No one expects to go out for an evening on the town, or off to run errands, only to park the car and sustain a serious personal injury. But if this situation has happened to you, just know that you are not alone, and you can call our legal team to help you in your time of need.
In general, parking lots use cement parking blocks, as a stopper to prevent cars from overshooting their parking spot to hit other cars, hit a wall, or hit landscaping or shrubbery in the parking area. People can be injured when tripping over a cement parking block, or over the grass that can grow in the openings when these parking blocks start to crumble, break apart and are poorly maintained. If the area under the cement parking block starts to break up, weeds start to form, and the growing grass can further separate the cement block, pavement and surrounding areas of the parking lot to make pot holes and other foreign debris in the parking area. This will create a higher likelihood of a tripping and falling area within the parking lot, whereby you can fall on your face, fall on a hip, break a leg or otherwise become debilitated, disabled and seriously injured from one of these cement parking blocks gone awry.

Why Do Cement Parking Blocks Start to Tilt, Shift and Rock Back and Forth in the Parking Lot?
If a cement parking block is poorly installed, over time it will start to tilt, shift and rock back and forth on the ground of the parking lot. This will cause large chunks of debris to chip off of the cement block, creating a hazardous tripping area for you to fall onto. Besides stubbing your shoe or toe on these chips of cement, you can trip over it, fall down backwards, lose your balance, and otherwise take a hard one to the ground, when these start to shift, tilt and fall apart. Besides this issue, if there is no one to maintain the cement parking block once it is installed, then it is a foregone conclusion that it will just start to deteriorate on an uneven surface, being exposed to constant elements such as sun and rain.
