Car Accidents in California
Car accidents are one of the most common causes of injuries in the state of California. Each year, hundreds of thousands of people are injured as a result of accidents that take place on our roads. We see countless people injured as a result of accidents that are completely preventable.
Drivers who are speeding tend to be one of the leading factors in many accidents across our state. When drivers are going too fast, they are likely to lose control of their vehicles and cause others harm. We also see a significant number of accidents take place as a result of drivers who fail to yield. While passing through intersections or switching lanes, it is crucial that we yield the right-of-way to other vehicles. When drivers fail to do so, they can crash into them and cause serious harm.
Other common factors in many of the accidents that take place here in California include impairment, running red lights, and being distracted while behind the wheel. When people are negligent and reckless while operating their vehicles, they place the lives of everyone else at risk. If you have been hurt due to the negligent actions of another driver, you may have legal options to help.
