Accidents Involving Seniors
As mentioned in research done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic fatalities in 2016 were people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 study from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) reported that per mile traveled, fatal crash rates escalate starting at age 75 and go up dramatically after age 80. And while they determined that this is largely due to an elevated risk of personal injury and medical complications, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are driving the other car you may be at a additional risk. If you or a family member in the Yorba Linda, 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 consultation and to look at your possible remedies.It is well-known that as we age we begin to lose a lot of of our capabilities. Our hearing can lessen, as can our vision, energy level, cognitive ability, and reflexes. The failure - or delayed ability - to respond to a threat or dangerous scenario can be the difference between steering clear of an accident completely or becoming part of the accident data. With the advancement of improved medical technological innovations and the proper nutrition, people are living much longer and have more active life styles. Subsequently, there are more older drivers on the road, and hence there are more accidents that involve senior drivers. According to Consumer Reports, in 2017 over 3.5 million Americans age 85+ held a driver's license. If you or a family member in the Yorba Linda, 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 go over your possible solutions.
Failure to Yield Accidents
People all over the Yorba Linda, CA area "fail to yield" on a day to day basis, resulting in many accidents. "Failure to yield" is precisely what it sounds like: someone fails to yield the right of way to someone else, leading to an accident.Failure to yield accidents are quite common in Yorba Linda, CA and typically occur at intersections, with an excessive amount of accidents resulting from left-hand turns. Failure to yield accidents also sometimes occur at flashing red lights when a vehicle fails to come to a complete stop, flashing yellow lights, and when drivers aggressively merge onto highways and/or when lanes merge.While failure to yield accidents are typically more minor, they may result in property damage and physical injuries, which may lead to loss of income because of lost time at a job and disability.

Texting While Driving Accidents
Texting behind the wheel of a moving vehicle is the worst conceivable thing you can do, and is not only dangerous, it is quite commonplace. A 2019 Driver Knowledge study determined that 1 out of every 3 people text while driving, even though texting while driving elevates the risk of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have prohibited texting while driving, it still takes place, and it still results in accidents on a regular basis. If you or a loved one or family member have been in a car accident while texting, or while the other driver was texting, you unquestionably need to contact us.

Motorcycle Accidents
In 2018, 8.02% of US households owned motorcycles. (Motorcycle Industry Council, 2019)While motorcycles are responsible for only 0.6% of all motor vehicle miles traveled, riders account for 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) deaths, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger car accidents lead to an injury or death, 80% of motorcycle accidents result in injury or death. Also, motorcyclist deaths were much more likely to happen in the city than in agricultural areas (60% vs. 38%).

Pedestrian and Bicycle 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 experience quite a few of the very same situations as motorcyclists, but at lower rates of speed. Cyclists typically are not as noticeable as passenger cars and/or trucks, they aren't as secure on only two tires as a car is on 4 tires, and any sort of accident including a bicycle has a high percent likelihood of bringing about physical trauma. 81% of pedestrian fatalities in 2018 took place in metropolitan environments, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities among people 70+ in 2018 took place at intersections, in contrast to 22% for those younger than Age 70. (IIHS, 2019).If you were in any sort of accident involving a bicycle, a pedestrian, or a motorcycle you are likely to require a capable attorney. You need Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC. Call us at (877) 278-6890 today.
Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents
As you can potentially imagine, the more practice anyone gets driving, the more assured they grow to be and the more effective driver they develop into. Unfortunately, Teen and brand new drivers have to "practice" on the roads with the remainder of us, and they typically have a lot to learn! A 2019 Texas A&M Transportation Institute study concluded that Teens are more inclined to speed and tailgate than more mature drivers. That same report revealed that Teens normally do not consider driving at 5 to 10 mph above the speed limit to be dangerous.The NHTSA found that drivers ages 15-20 had the greatest percentage in speed related fatalities (32% and 22%) in comparison to any other age bracket in 2016, and that speeding was a factor in 31% of Teen driver deaths. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) found that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are nearly 3 x more likely to be involved in a deadly auto accident than drivers aged 20+, and that motor vehicle accidents are the primary reason of death for US teenagers.Granted, no one begins as an excellent driver; we all needed practice, and a number of us are continuing to learn! But Teens who don't have experience are clearly more prone to getting into car crashes. Despite all of the studies indicating that Teen drivers can make a lot of poor choices, the reality is that they are on the road with us, and their tendencies affect you and your loved ones.If you have been involved in an accident involving a teenage or new/inexperienced driver, you need to contact Law Offices of John C.

Emergency Vehicle Accidents
Regrettably, people responding to car accidents are also exposed to collisions of their own. In 2018, 168 people were killed in crashes involving emergency vehicles. The vast majority of these fatalities were occupants of non-emergency vehicles (56%); deaths among pedestrians, emergency vehicle drivers, and emergency vehicle passengers each accounted for about 13% to 14% of the deaths. When first responders are making an attempt to get somewhere fast, accidents can occur. If you or a loved one were hurt in an accident involving an ambulance, police car, firetruck, or other emergency vehicle, our law firm, Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC can help you. Call (877) 278-6890 today to set up your initial consultation.
Commercial Vehicle Accidents
There are also other cars and trucks that respond to the location of collisions; tow trucks for example. While you may very well think about tow trucks as the people who show up to help tidy up the aftermath of a crash or assist an disabled car or truck, accidents involving tow trucks occur more frequently than you would envision, and can cause appreciable physical damage to vehicles, together with serious accidental injury to individuals. Like large over-the-road trucks (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are large, 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 insert a towed-vehicle into the mix you elevate the chances of accidents even further.Department of Transportation vehicles and other specialty vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company vehicles, highway maintenance trucks, etc.) are everywhere, and yet we normally do not notice them as much because we are so accustomed to seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are big, on the move, and can present dangers on the roads.You should call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC right now at (877) 278-6890 if you are involved in a vehicle accident with a business vehicle.
