I am very sorry to hear about this accident and hope the injured children have a fast recovery without any permanent damage.
Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise victims of their legal rights. Since a buggy is considred a motor vehicle, the parents can can submit a claim for Michigan No-Fault insurance benefits for their injured children. No-Fault benefits will cover their medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care, replacement services, and other benefits related to injuries suffered in the accident. The injured person can claim these benefits even if they did not have a Michigan automobile insurance policy.
