Why Car Crashes Happen in West Palm Beach
Car crashes can occur due to a wide range of causes. However, most crashes involve negligence. Our West Palm Beach car accident attorney can help you secure maximum compensation for a car crash resulting from:
Reckless Driving
Aggressive driving, speeding, running red lights, ignoring stop signs, failure to yield, and other dangerous traffic violations can easily lead to devastating or fatal crashes.
Distracted Driving
Despite all the warnings about the tragic consequences of distracted driving, millions of drivers still engage in dangerous distracted driving practices. Your West Palm Beach car accident attorney will prove that the distracted driver caused the crash by reviewing police reports, the driver’s online activities, and witness statements, among others.
Driving Under The Influence (DUI)
Driving while drugged or drunk is immensely dangerous. An impaired driver can easily lose control of their vehicle and will have a significantly reduced reaction time than a driver who is not impaired. Consequently, impaired drivers may fail to stay in their lanes, speed up, or fall asleep while driving.
Dangerous Roadways
Deep potholes, uneven grades, and slippery roadways, among others, can make drivers lose control of their vehicles. Your West Palm Beach car accident attorney will work quickly to investigate the accident site to see whether a government agency or its contractors failed to properly design or maintain the dangerous road condition that caused the crash.
Defective Vehicles or Vehicle Components
Faulty brakes, malfunctioning ignition switches, and defective airbags and tires are just some of the many vehicle components that cause serious car crashes. Your attorney can help ensure that the defective vehicle or part manufacturer will be held legally responsible for your injuries and accident-related losses.
