Travelers often turn to motels when looking for a budget-friendly place to spend the night. Motels are a good fit when you don’t need the extras you would find in a hotel, like a swimming pool or exercise room. Since motels are typically located along major highways, they are easy for travelers to find.

Guests can be seriously injured when staying at a motel despite their affordability and convenience. If you were severely hurt in a motel accident, you should speak with the best Florida accident attorney as soon as possible. Whether you slip and fall or are the victim of criminal activity, the injuries you suffer could affect the quality of your life.

Common Causes of Motel Accidents in Florida

Staying at a motel presents unique risks to guests. Motels are smaller than hotels and usually have less staff on the property. Guests don’t walk through a lobby or building to get to their rooms. Instead, the door to your room is accessed from the parking lot.

Motel owners and managers are obliged to keep their property safe for their guests. You could suffer severe injuries when owners and managers don’t take the appropriate steps to ensure safe premises.

Some of the most common ways people get hurt staying at a Florida motel include:

  • Slips and falls: You will likely use exterior walkways and stairs to get to your room. When it rains, the sidewalks can become slippery. Leaves or other debris left on walkways can become slick when wet. People may tumble on stairs that don’t have the appropriate non-slip surface. Exterior handrails and railings could give way or break if their quality worsened due to heat, sun, and rain exposure.
  • Inside, guests can slip and fall if toilets or sinks leak water on the bathroom floor. People could slip in showers without proper non-slip adhesive or trip over uneven floors in the room.
  • Parking lot accidents: Potholes, uneven pavement, or broken curbs could cause someone to trip and fall, especially at night if the parking lot is not well-lit. Paint used to mark emergency zones and parking spaces could become slick if it isn’t made with a non-slip adhesive.
  • Criminal activity: Since motel rooms are accessible from outside the building, guests could become targets of illegal activity if the motel does not have strong locks on the exterior windows or doors. People could become victims of criminal acts if the motel doesn’t have adequate security or cameras to monitor the building. Motels that are easily seen and accessible from the highway may be prone to increased criminal acts.
Damages in a Florida Motel Accident

Suppose you are seriously hurt in a Florida motel accident due to a motel owner or manager not taking the necessary steps to ensure your safety. In that case, you may be able to recover compensation for the extreme damage you have suffered from. Depending on how severe your injuries are, you could be compensated for your medical care, pain and suffering, lost wages, and mental anguish caused by the accident.
