Good Roads Podcast

Show Notes

With municipalities looking for any way to curb the increases in municipal insurance costs, we take a look at joint and several liability for another perspective.

Our guests this week, from Advantage Forensics, talk to us about their upcoming Good Roads course, Municipal Liability - Traffic Collisions, where they provide an in-depth understanding of municipalities’ exposure to liability due to their legal obligation to provide safe road facilities to the public, and how to avoid that costly exposure.

Tune in to this episode of the podcast to find out how to avoid the perils of joint and several liability by reducing your exposure to liability in the first place.
