New York City is home to millions of people and also receives a constant stream of tourists as well as business visitors who travel to the city every year for various reasons. On the busy and bustling streets of this densely packed city, road accidents are unfortunately far too common.
Keeping the roads of a busy and bustling city clean is no small task. New York City’s Department of Sanitation achieves this through the use of street sweepers. Considering their huge size, these machines require a lot of space and if you are not careful around one of these vehicles, you may find yourself hurt in an accident that has devastating consequences. If the accident involving a street sweeper is found to have been caused due to the negligence of the person driving it, the city can be considered at fault for the incident.
