Accidents Involving Seniors
According to research done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic deaths in 2016 were people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 report from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) reported that per mile traveled, lethal crash rates rise starting at age 75 and go up dramatically after age 80. And while they determined that this is principally due to an more significant risk of personal injury and medical complications, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are behind the wheel of the other car you may be at a greater risk. If you or a family member in the Tustin, CA area have been in an accident involving a senior citizen, or if you are a Senior driver and have been in an accident, contact Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free assessment and to discuss your potential remedies.It is well-known that as we grow older we begin to lose many of our abilities. Our hearing can diminish, as can our vision, energy level, cognitive ability, and reactions. The failure - or slowed ability - to respond to a hazardous or high risk scenario can be the difference between preventing an accident altogether or becoming part of the accident studies. With the advancement of better medical technological advances and diet, people are living for a longer time and have more active life styles. As a result, there are more older vehicle operators on the road, and consequently there are more accidents involving senior drivers. According to Consumer Reports, in 2017 over 3.5 million Americans 85 and older held a driver's license. If you or a family member in the Tustin, CA area have been in an accident involving a senior citizen, or if you are over 65 and have been in an accident, contact Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free consultation and to take a look at your possible solutions.

A 2019 Driver Knowledge study determined that 1 out of every 3 people text while driving, even though texting while driving will increase the possibility of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have banned texting while driving, it still takes place, and it still can cause accidents on a regular basis.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents
Accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists can be even more complicated than vehicle-to-vehicle accidents because the other party may or may not have insurance.Bicyclists encounter many of the same difficulties as motorcyclists, but at lower speeds. Bicyclists usually aren't as apparent as passenger cars and/or trucks, they aren't as stable on only two tires as a car or truck is on 4 tires, and a crash including a bike has a very high percent likelihood of contributing to physical personal injury. 81% of pedestrian fatalities in 2018 happened in metropolitan locations, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities involving someone 70+ in 2018 occurred at intersections, in contrast to 22% for those younger than 70.

Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents
As you can probably imagine, the more practice somebody receives when driving, the more self-assured they become and the better driver they grow to be. Unfortunately, teenage and new drivers are forced to "practice" on the roads with the remainder of us, and they usually have a lot to learn. A 2019 Texas A&M Transportation Institute study determined that Teens are more inclined to violate the speed limit and follow at closer distances than experienced drivers. That same report found that Teens don't consider driving at 5 to 10 mph above the speed limit to be dangerous.The NHTSA found that drivers ages 15-20 had the highest representation in speed related fatalities (32% and 22%) in comparison to any other age bracket in 2016, and that speeding was a consideration in 31% of Teen driver fatalities. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) found that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are nearly 3 times more likely to be in a deadly auto accident than drivers aged 20+, and that motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for US teens.Granted, no one starts off as a fantastic driver; every one of us required practice, and a number of us are continuing to learn! But teenagers who don't have practical experience are clearly more inclined to getting into car or truck crashes. Irrespective of all of the stats showing that teenage drivers can make a lot of mediocre decisions, the reality is that they are on the highway with us, and their abilities affect you and your loved ones.If you or someone you know has been associated with any sort of accident connected with a teenage or new/novice driver, you need to contact Law Offices of John C.

Commercial Vehicle Accidents
There are also other vehicles that respond to the scene of crashes; tow trucks for example. While you could possibly think of tow trucks as the men and women who make an appearance to assist clear up the consequences of a vehicle accident or assist an incapacitated vehicle, accidents involving tow trucks occur more often than you would envision, and can be the source of considerable physical damage to vehicles, in addition to serious accidental injury to people. Like large over-the-road vehicles (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are massive, bulky, quite heavy and not very agile. Their size and diminished mobility play a role in the physical damage they can do, and when you add a towed-vehicle into the mix you elevate the possibility of accidents even further.Department of Transportation vehicles and other service vehicles (tow trucks, power company trucks, highway maintenance vehicles, etc.) are all around you, and yet we usually do not notice them as much because we are so used to seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are big, on the move, and can represent potential risks on the roads.You should call Law Offices of John C.
