Reckless Driving Accidents in Kansas City

Over the past 25 years, Attorney Doug Horn and the Horn Law Firm have concentrated in representing people who have been injured or killed in reckless driving collisions. Reckless driving cases require a different approach from typical motor vehicle accidents that arise from ordinary negligence. This is in large part due to the fact that settlements and awards are much higher, and therefore, deserve a unique legal approach. If you or someone you know has been injured (or has lost their life) due to a reckless driver, they should obtain legal consultation from an attorney and law firm that concentrates in reckless driving cases. This is especially important if the injuries are likely to cause extended medical treatment and the possibility of longer-term effects.

Rapid Response

Reckless driving that causes car, truck, and motorcycle collisions requires a rapid response from your attorney and law firm to make the best possible legal recoveries in many cases involving crashes caused by reckless driving. Often, especially in violent collisions, accident investigations and accident reconstruction is necessary to prove reckless conduct and establish fault and liability. Lead Attorney Doug Horn and the Horn Law investigative team handles these independent legal investigations. These efforts are vital to securing relevant evidence and gaining the upper hand with the insurance companies.

Quick Contact to Lead Attorney Doug Horn

For a rapid response, call Lead Attorney Doug Horn at (816) 795-7500 to alert him to your case. After hours, weekends, and holidays, please use the chat function on this site. Please note that legal consultation with Lead Attorney Doug Horn is easy to arrange. In addition to office consultation at our headquarters office in Independence (across the street from Costco near the I-70 and Missouri 291 Interchange), Horn Law also has consultation offices located in Lee’s Summit, Liberty, and Overland Park to better serve clients throughout the Kansas City Metro Area.

Close & Convenient

The Horn Law home office is in Independence, Missouri, near I-70 and I-470 (across the street from Costco).

In addition to our home office, consultation offices are located in both Lee’s Summit and Liberty in Missouri, as well as Overland Park, Kansas.

Home and Hospital Consultations

In serious injury cases where an injured person is confined to their home or a hospital bed, family members can make special arrangements for early legal consultation at home or in the hospital. This gives us, as your legal counsel, an opportunity to begin to take care of the immediate issues, including the legal, insurance, medical, and financial claims.

Legal Representation

Our law firm’s legal representation can make a big difference in the legal recovery, especially in reckless driving accidents that cause a sudden onset of traumatic injury, as well as the need for rehabilitation treatments such as physical therapy, chiropractic treatment, or medical recovery from orthopedic and neurologic trauma, including:

- Neck, back, and spine injuries

- Head and brain injury

- Bone fracture and joint injury (shoulder, arm, leg, etc.)

- Injuries requiring surgical repair

Horn Law will only undertake legal representation in cases where we will make a substantial difference in an injured person’s settlement and final award. Because an injured person usually only has one chance to receive a total settlement pertaining to his or her personal injury claim, it must be done correctly from the beginning. That means we must maximize the recovery, so our client makes the best recovery possible. On this website, we have published our track record, but many people who retain our firm to handle a reckless driving claim rely upon our Google reviews. Please note that at the end of this page is “Our Code of Conduct,” which governs our responsibilities to the injured persons and families we represent in all personal injury claims.

Reckless Driving Claims

Over the last ten years, both Missouri and Kansas have reported a significant surge in motor vehicle accident claims due to reckless driving. As a result, the types of collisions that cause serious injury and traffic fatalities are on the rise. The types of cases below represent the ten most common types of reckless driving cases we have handled.

- High-speed collisions (in excess 15 mph above the speed limit)

- Distracted driving collisions

- Drunk driving collisions

- Impaired/drugged driving collisions

- Collisions resulting from running red lights or stop signs

- Aggressive driving collisions

- Dangerous maneuver collisions (improper turns or lane changes)

- Road rage collisions

- Vehicular rollover collisions

- Wrong-way driving collisions

Horn Law Code of Conduct

The following are the criteria we follow when providing legal representation in an injury case.

- The decision to represent an injured person is solely based on whether legal representation is in the best interests of the injured person and/or his or her family.

- Once Horn Law agrees to legal representation, the representation must continue to be in the best interests of the client through the resolution of the case.

- During the course of legal representation, Horn Law’s duty is to devote their full professional abilities and resources to the case to maximize the client’s legal recovery.

Blue UAS Recognized Assessor to deliver supply chain and cybersecurity evaluations for participating UAS vendors

RESTON, Va., March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- SpiderOak, a leader in zero-trust cybersecurity solutions and services for space, aerospace, and defense, announced today that it has been awarded a contract by the Program Office for U.S. Army Unmanned Aircraft Systems (PMO UAS) to perform supply chain analysis and cybersecurity assessments for multiple vendors participating in the U.S. Army's Drone Dominance Program (DDP).

SpiderOak, a Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Blue UAS Recognized Assessor, will apply its Advanced Cyber Threat & Resilience Assessments (ACTRA) methodology to evaluate participating platforms for supply chain integrity, cyber resilience, and compliance with U.S. Government security requirements. The effort supports the Army's push to rapidly field secure, low-cost, unmanned aerial systems at scale.

The Drone Dominance Program, launched in February 2026, is a multi-phase initiative designed to accelerate the evaluation, selection, and production of next-generation small UAS capabilities. The program's initial "Gauntlet" event at Fort Benning, Georgia, brought together 25 vendors for live operational testing, with the goal of selecting up to 12 performers to produce tens of thousands of systems in the near term and scale to hundreds of thousands of units by 2028.

"As unmanned systems scale across modern operations, the integrity of their cyber and supply chain foundations becomes mission critical," said Kip Gering, CEO of SpiderOak. "We are honored to support PMO UAS and the Drone Dominance Program by delivering independent, technically rigorous assessments that help ensure these platforms can be trusted in contested environments."

Through this contract, SpiderOak will conduct deep technical evaluations across hardware, firmware, software, and component provenance. The assessments are designed to identify vulnerabilities, validate compliance with NDAA and NIST requirements, and help program stakeholders make informed risk decisions before systems are fielded.

Advanced Cyber Threat & Resilience Assessments

SpiderOak's Advanced Cyber Threat & Resilience Assessments (ACTRA) delivers comprehensive, threat-informed platform vulnerability assessments for tactical systems and components. For UAS initiatives, SpiderOak provides independent, technically rigorous evaluations across hardware, firmware, software, supply chain provenance, and ownership structures. These assessments support compliance with standards such as NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, and Executive Order 14028, enabling defense stakeholders to deploy cyber-secure autonomous systems with confidence.

About SpiderOak

SpiderOak is a 100% U.S.-owned and operated company dedicated to solving the computer security challenges of the 21st century. Our technology allows applications to secure all interactions between each other, providing strong assurances of authority and identity, as well as the flexibility to integrate with existing systems, software, and devices beyond centralized cloud services and data centers to the far reaches of the tactical edge.

Services strengthen cyber resilience for Army's Short-Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program and future unmanned systems across all domains

RESTON, Va., Dec. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SpiderOak, a leader in zero-trust cybersecurity solutions for space, aerospace, and defense, announced today that Red Cat Holdings (NASDAQ: RCAT), a recognized industry leader in advanced all-domain drone and robotic solutions for defense and national security, has selected SpiderOak to perform a comprehensive Blue UAS cybersecurity assessment of its Black Widow™ Short-Range Reconnaissance (SRR) platform.

As part of the Defense Innovation Unit's (DIU) Blue UAS framework, SpiderOak—an official Recognized Assessor—will conduct vulnerability analysis, penetration testing, and Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) evaluations to support Red Cat's inclusion of the Black Widow™ on the Blue UAS Cleared List.

Strengthening Cyber Resilience Through Blue UAS Assessments

As a Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Recognized Assessor, SpiderOak delivers a suite of independent cybersecurity evaluation services under the Blue UAS framework—designed to verify and enhance the cyber resilience of unmanned systems before they enter the Department of War supply chain.

For Red Cat's Black Widow™ platform, SpiderOak's team will perform a comprehensive Blue UAS assessment, including vulnerability analysis, penetration testing, and Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) evaluations. These services provide critical validation that the platform meets stringent U.S. Government cybersecurity, supply chain, and compliance standards.

SpiderOak's methodology integrates advanced threat modeling, secure-by-design analysis, and supply chain forensics to help partners like Red Cat meet or exceed requirements under NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, and Executive Order 14028. Through its role as a Recognized Assessor, SpiderOak supports the rapid fielding of trusted, mission-ready systems that advance U.S. defense and intelligence operations across all domains.

Support for Secure All-Domain Operations

"Red Cat is an industry leader pushing the boundaries of all-domain defense operations, and the Black Widow™ platform plays a critical role in ensuring our warfighters maintain situational advantage," said Michael Carlson, Senior Director of Business Development for SpiderOak. "Our Blue UAS assessment services are designed to deliver outcomes quickly for the warfighter—helping trusted partners like Red Cat validate cyber readiness, achieve certification, and get critical capabilities into the field sooner. By bringing zero-trust principles and a rigorous, data-driven assessment methodology to the forefront, we're enabling faster, more secure deployment of mission-critical UAS across the Department of War."

"Cybersecurity is foundational to trust and mission assurance," said Jason Gunter, VP of Tech and Innovation at Red Cat Holdings. "Working with SpiderOak ensures that Black Widow™ not only meets Blue UAS standards but sets a new benchmark for how defense-grade UAS platforms should approach cyber protection and supply chain integrity."

Enabling Secure UAS Integration into the DoD Supply Chain

This engagement reinforces the continued importance of the DIU Blue UAS program in accelerating access to secure and compliant unmanned systems across the Department of War. Through its role as a Recognized Assessor, SpiderOak supports industry partners in meeting stringent cybersecurity and compliance requirements while enhancing the resilience of command, control, and telemetry links across contested environments.

We’re Sorry.

We let you down, and we are going to make it right.

On February 17, we invited you to celebrate our 40th birthday with us. Wow, did you turn out!

The response to our birthday BOGO offer was unlike anything we’ve seen. You visited our restaurants in overwhelming numbers to share in the milestone, and for that, we are genuinely humbled. Forty years is a long time, and the outpouring of support yesterday reminded us why we love what we do.

But we also need to be honest: We let you down, and we’re sorry.

The promotion spread far beyond what we anticipated, and our hardworking crews were placed in a difficult situation. Some locations ran out of product and had to close early. Online and app ordering experienced sporadic issues that prevented some of you from redeeming the offer.

If you were one of the customers unable to place an order, you deserve better and we’re going to make it right. We’re currently planning something special for customers who missed out, and we’ll have details to share very soon.

Until then, please know that we have been working diligently to replenish product at closed locations.

We also want to recognize the incredible men and women working in our restaurants. While yesterday’s issues were through no fault of their own, they handled it with the same grit and dedication that has defined Five Guys for four decades. We are working together with our franchisees to ensure our crew members are properly recognized for their efforts during the promotion.

Thank you for your understanding, patience and, most of all, your love for Five Guys. More information to come.
