Common Causes of Car Accidents

Common causes may include the following:

  • Distracted Driving: Distractions like talking on the phone, texting, or using in-car entertainment systems divert a driver's attention away from the road, leading to collisions.
  • Speeding: Excessive speed decreases the amount of time a driver has to react to sudden changes in traffic conditions and increases the severity of accidents.
  • Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol and drugs often impair a driver’s judgment, coordination, and reaction times, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
  • Reckless Driving: Aggressive driving behaviors like tailgating, changing lanes without signaling, and running red lights could result in severe accidents.
  • Weather Conditions: Rain, fog, and ice can create hazardous driving conditions, making it challenging for drivers to maintain control of their vehicles.
  • Vehicle Defects: Mechanical failures, such as brake malfunctions or tire blowouts, can cause accidents. Manufacturers and repair shops may be held liable if defects are found to be the cause.

Common Injuries in Car Accidents

Common injuries include the following:

  • Whiplash: This injury often occurs when the head is suddenly jolted forward and backward, leading to neck pain and stiffness.
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): A collision can cause significant head trauma, potentially resulting in long-term cognitive and physical impairments.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: Harm to the spinal cord could lead to partial or full paralysis, affecting mobility and quality of life.
  • Fractures and Broken Bones: The force of impact can cause various bones to break, requiring surgery and extensive rehabilitation.
  • Internal Injuries: Injuries to internal organs, like the liver, spleen, or kidneys, may not be instantly evident but can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Injuries to muscles, ligaments, and tendons, such as sprains and strains, are common and can cause long-term pain and discomfort.

What Damages Could Be Recovered in a Car Accident Claim?

Potential damages may include the following:

  • Medical Expenses: Compensation for medical expenses sustained as a result of the accident, including hospital stays, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatments.
  • Lost Wages: If your injuries prevent you from working, you can pursue compensation for lost earnings during your recovery period.
  • Pain and Suffering: You may be entitled to damages for physical pain, emotional distress, and diminished quality of life caused by the accident.
  • Property Damage: Compensation for restorations or replacement of your vehicle and other damaged property.
  • Future Expenses: If your injuries result in long-term or permanent disability, you could be qualified for compensation for future medical fees and lost wages capacity.
  • Loss of Consortium: In instances where an accident impacts your relationship with your partner or family, you may be able to claim damages for loss of companionship and support.
