Large Amounts of Cruise Ship Activity Can Mean Serious Accidents
With the large amount of traffic in San Francisco each year, cruise ships are a popular attraction. Unfortunately, every year passengers and crew members aboard cruise ships sustain serious injuries, sometimes even death.
Accidents involving cruise ships are often very serious and may cause injuries such as:
- Head injuries
- Back injuries
- Broken bones
- Dislocations
- Contusions
- Burns
- Illness from a contagion
The laws that apply to cruise ship-related injuries can be complex, especially because these ships travel to and from a variety of different geographic areas, which can trigger different state, federal, or international laws.
