I have a second degree burn on my right hand from airbag deployment in a car accident. The other person ran a redlight.

Because the other driver ran the red light, he is at fault for the collision and liable to you for all past and future medicale expenses, lost income and pain and suffering caused by the collision. You should get all necessary medical treatment and evaluation of the long term consequences of your injury. You should also consult with a good Kentucky personal injury lawyer who will evaluate your case and achieve the best possible recovery on your behalf. I don't believe that you have a viable product liability case because, one, some amount of burns are to be expected from an air bag deployment that is designed to protect you from much greater injury and, two, your injury while significant would not generally justify the expense of a product liability case, especially when the liable third-party's insurance should cover your damages. Good luck.

You should focus on healing and also contact a good personal injury attorney to evaluate your options. Keep track of your expenses and start a daily injury journal to document the impact of your injury and how it is affecting your life. Good luck.

You definitely have a claim as long as it can be proved that the other driver ran the red light. Sometimes stories are changed so if there are any witnesses you should get there names and contact accident immediately. Also, make sure you make a Kentucky PIP claim so that your medical bills and loss wages are paid as they occur.your own car insurance will pay up to $10,000.00 and then be reimbursed by the at fault insurance company.
