WHEN DOES PERSONAL INJURY LAW APPLY?

“It was early in the morning and you are walking on your way home after a daily jog. Everything is running normal when a fast motorcycle approached its way near you. The driver seemed not to care seeing you across the way, and it became too late for him to manipulate the ride as it fastly came to smash you. You were caught off guard...and when it finally hit you, you just stumbled on the side of the road having your head banged atop of the cemented floor while your body suffered scratches from the rough surfaces you have rolled unconsciously.”

Presented above is an example of physical injury due to other persons negligent actions and eventually putting somebody else's life into danger.
