Canoeing accidents typically involve capsizing or overturning, from paddling into hazardous waters and unpredictable currents. Other boats, jet skis, or waterborne debris may also strike and flip canoes. These accidents often have devastating effects, including hypothermia and drowning. Common injuries include sprains, lacerations, bruises, broken bones, head and facial injuries, and drowning.
Although canoeing is a fun activity, one must understand the risks associated with canoeing to avoid being injured or killed.
Beyond fatal drowning, common canoeing injuries involve neck or spine damage from violent tossing motions, traumatic brain injuries by striking heads on rocks or the canoe, and broken bones from equipment crushing paddlers when overturned. Strong river currents can also catch, dislocate, and even amputate limbs.
These accidents can be costly, leading to numerous medical bills, pain and suffering, rehabilitation, and emotional trauma. If you or a loved one are suffering due to another party’s negligence, it's imperative to have a strong legal team by your side.
