Car Accidents in California
Motor vehicle accidents leave hundreds of thousands of people across California injured every year. There are countless instances where people are hurt as a result of accidents caused by the careless actions of others.
There are several factors that contribute to accidents across our state. One common cause is distracted driving. There are where people cause crashes due to texting, adjusting the radio, or eating behind the wheel. Driving under the influence is a serious problem in California, with many accidents caused by impaired drivers. Additionally, reckless driving behaviors such as tailgating and weaving in and out of lanes contribute to a significant number of collisions on California roads.
After being hurt in a motor vehicle accident, victims have the ability to file a personal injury claim against the responsible party. It is vital to have strong evidence against the person who caused the accident, so that you are able to recover fair compensation. Witness statements, police reports, and physical evidence from the scene are all crucial in determining fault. Insurance companies will also conduct their own investigations to assign liability. It’s important to gather as much information as possible after an accident to support your case.
In some cases, both drivers may share responsibility for the crash due to our state’s comparative negligence laws. However, it is important to recognize that if you share fault for the accident, the amount of compensation you recover will be reduced to reflect the percentage of fault you contributed to the crash. This makes it important to work with a Los Angeles car accident lawyer, so that you are able to maximize your recovery.
