Top Causes of Car Crashes in Wetumpka, AL
Top Causes of Car Crashes in Wetumpka, AL
Car accidents can happen for many different reasons, many of which involve the conduct of others. When someone else is responsible for causing an accident, they should also be responsible for covering all your losses, including from property damage and injuries. This is why identifying the cause of a crash is so critical, and a Wetumpka car accident attorney can help with this process.
The following are some of the top causes of car accidents in the Wetumpka area and throughout Alabama. If you were injured in a crash, contact Luck Law, LLC for help right away.
Distracted driving
Distraction has always been a problem behind the wheel, but it has become a public health issue with the rise of smartphones and other mobile devices. While most states - including Alabama - now have laws prohibiting texting and driving, people continue to engage in this highly distracting and dangerous conduct. Even using hands-free technology in a car to text or talk to someone can be distracting.
Not all distractions involve smartphones or texting, however. Eating and drinking, grooming, watching kids in the back seat, reaching for something, or even using a GPS can all cause distraction that leads to a serious accident. Distracted drivers should be liable for any harm they cause.
Impaired driving
Every driver should know that driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is highly dangerous and unlawful. Not only can impaired drivers face arrests and criminal charges, but they should also have civil liability for any injuries or damage that results if they crash.
It is important to remember that a criminal case is separate from your car accident claim. Even if a driver is convicted of driving under the influence (DUI) in Alabama, injured accident victims must take separate action to seek compensation. They must file an insurance claim against the impaired driver or a personal injury lawsuit in civil court. If you are in this position, speak with a car accident attorney immediately about your options.
Violating traffic laws
Traffic laws exist to keep us all safe. Unfortunately, many careless or aggressive drivers violate them regularly and do things like speed, make illegal turns, fail to yield the right of way, fail to signal lane changes, or run stop signs and stop lights. When drivers violate traffic laws and cause accidents, victims are typically entitled to compensation for their injuries. This is one of the reasons it is so important to call the police after a wreck. If they determine that the other driver violated the law, it can make it much easier to recover compensation.
