South Carolina’s golf courses and beaches are some of the best out there for Snowbirds. In fact, the Carolinas boast some of the prettiest beaches in the world along with some of the most fun and challenging golf courses. Who hasn’t heard of Hilton Head and all of the beautiful Islands along the coast. A spot many a Snowbird loves to head to for the winter R & R.

It is also a hot spot for the US Colleges spring breaks. Unfortunately, with all that fun, drinking and driving greatly increases. Approximately 1/3 of South Carolina’s traffic fatalities are alcohol-related – with most happening around spring break. With this in mind be careful. While travelling through or to South Carolina, an accident happens, snowbirds know they can look to the Snowbird Helpline for advice.
It is very important to know that in South Carolina you have up to three (3) years to bring a personal injury claim against the person who caused your injury.
South Carolina is a “modified comparative negligence” state. If you are more than 51% responsible for the accident you will not be able to recover any compensation for the injuries you suffered. Please note this provision does rarely affects passengers in vehicles. They are rarely at fault for an accident.
In addition, snowbirds remain eligible to receive (PIP) accident benefits regardless of fault. These benefits must be claimed in your home state or province.
This is where Snowbird Accidents comes in. Since 1981, we have been helping seriously injured motorists get the treatment and care they need to recover from their injuries and to receive compensation for their losses. We understand it is not only the injured party that may require assistance, but as often loved ones. By giving us a call, we can help put you in touch with some of the best personal injury lawyers in South Carolina and/or Canada, as well as help guide you through some very confusing times.
