As luminously attractive fireworks may seem, they are extremely explosive and dangerous once they get out of control. The slightest mistake in the operation and arrangement of a firework show can put lives at risk of burning or getting injured otherwise. Bonfire nights, wedding celebration. Christmas parties, and New Year celebrations may call for a firework show, but accidents are inevitable. If you have recently sustained any personal firework injury due to the negligence of an organization or an individual, you have to right to claim compensation for your loss by consulting the best personal injury lawyers in Stockport.
Fireworks have been divided into four different categories by BS 7114. The list is as follows:
Category 1: Category 1 fireworks are also called indoor fireworks as they do not pose any hazardous threat for the users. Sparklers and party poppers are examples.
Category 2: Category 2 are adult fireworks that are mostly used for the fireworks show in small garden parties.
Category 3: These are display fireworks used in firework shows. Both category 2 and 3 fireworks are illegal to be sold without age verification.
Category 4: Fireworks falling under category 4 are also allowed for trained professionals for high-end firework displays.
There are two ways how a person can suffer from a firework injury. It is either due to the negligence of an organization or an individual.
Organizations that are arranging public events should follow strict rules and safety regulations when arranging a firework show for the public. There should be a proper distance between the spectators and the display show. Barriers should be placed in order to ensure safety. If any spectator suffers from any firework injury because of an organization’s negligence for safety, they will be responsible to pay the compensation.
Private parties have more risks of injuries because small spaces lack proper organization because of which safety precautions are hard to follow. If you are at a festive party where the firework show was displayed and you sustained an injury, the host of the party will be held liable for the compensation.
