Accidents Involving Seniors
As mentioned in an investigation done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic deaths in 2016 were among people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 study from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) found that per mile traveled, fatal crash rates escalate beginning at age 75 and increase sharply after age 80. And while they concluded that this is mainly due to an elevated risk of injury and medical problems, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are behind the wheel of the other car you may be at a increased risk. If you or a family member in the Camarillo, 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 assessment and to talk about your possible solutions.It is well recognized that as we grow older we begin to lose many of our skills. Our hearing can decrease, as can our visual acuity, energy level, cognitive ability, and reflexes. The inability - or slowed ability - to respond to a risk or dangerous situation can be the difference between avoiding an accident completely or becoming part of the accident data. With the advancement of enhanced medical technologies and nutrition, people are living a lot longer and have more active lifestyles. As a result, there are more older drivers on the road, and as a result there are more accidents that involve elderly 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 Camarillo, 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 talk about your potential solutions.
Failure to Yield Accidents
Motorists all over the Camarillo, CA area "fail to yield" on a consistent 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, which results in an accident.Failure to yield accidents are quite common in Camarillo, CA and commonly occur at intersections, with an excessive quantity of accidents due to left-hand turns. Failure to yield accidents also quite often occur at blinking red lights when a car or truck fails to come to a complete stop, flashing yellow lights, and when drivers vigorously merge onto freeways and/or when lanes merge.Whereas failure to yield accidents are typically more minor, they can still result in property damage and physical injuries, which may lead to loss of income because of lost time at work and disability. We've seen our share of failure to yield cases at Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC and have plenty of expertise litigating these cases.

Texting While Driving Accidents
Texting behind the wheel of a moving vehicle is the worst imaginable thing you can do, and is not only hazardous, it is quite common. A 2019 Driver Knowledge study determined that 1 out of every 3 people text while driving, even though texting while driving enhances the risk of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have prohibited texting while driving, it still occurs, and it still results in accidents on a frequent 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 most definitely need to contact us. Our track record for taking care of Camarillo, CA area drivers is phenomenal, and with the considerable nature of this offense you need a support team who is not only accomplished with texting while driving accidents, but more importantly, their litigation.
Motorcycle Accidents
In 2018, 8.02% of US households owned motorcycles. (Motorcycle Industry Council, 2019)Although motorcycles account for only 0.6% of all vehicle miles traveled, riders account for 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) fatalities, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger car accidents lead to an injury or loss of life, 80% of motorcycle accidents lead to personal injury or death. Also, motorcyclist deaths were more likely to occur in cities than in non-urban 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 many of the exact same challenges as motorcyclists, but at lower rates of speed. Cyclists are usually not as noticeable as cars and/or trucks, they aren't as secure on only two tires as a car or truck is on 4 tires, and a traffic accident including a bicycle has a very high percent likelihood of bringing about physical damage. 81% of pedestrian fatalities in 2018 happened in metropolitan environments, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities among men and women 70 and older in 2018 took place at intersections, as opposed to 22% for those younger than 70. (IIHS, 2019).If you were in an accident involving a bike, a walker, or a motorcycle you are likely to require a experienced legal representative. 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 is getting when driving, the more comfortable they grow to be and the more efficient driver they end up. Sadly, teenage and brand new drivers must "practice" on the roads with the rest of us, and they typically have a lot to learn. A 2019 Texas A&M Transportation Institute study determined that Teens are much more likely to violate the speed limit and tailgate than experienced drivers. That same report found that Teens don't consider driving at 5 to 10 mph above the speed limit to be hazardous.The NHTSA found that drivers ages 15-20 had the greatest representation in speed-related fatalities (32% and 22%) in comparison to any other age group in 2016, and that driving too fast 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 practically three times more likely to be involved in a fatal auto crash than drivers aged 20+, and that motor vehicle accidents are the leading reason of death for US teens.Granted, no one starts off as a really good driver; the majority of us required practice, and many of us are still learning! But teenagers who are lacking experience are definitely more vulnerable to getting into car accidents. In spite of all of the data indicating that Teen drivers can make a lot of bad judgments, the reality is that they are on the streets with us, and their abilities affect you and your loved ones.If you or someone you know has been involved with a car accident involving a teenage or new/unskilled driver, you need to get in touch with Law Offices of John C.

Emergency Vehicle Accidents
Regrettably, men and women responding to auto accidents are also exposed to collisions of their own. In 2018, 168 people were killed in accidents involving emergency vehicles. The vast majority of these deaths were occupants of non-emergency vehicles (56%); deaths among pedestrians, emergency vehicle drivers, and emergency vehicle passengers each amounted to about 13% to 14% of the fatalities. When first responders are making an attempt to get some place fast, crashes can occur. If you or a loved one were wounded in an accident involving an ambulance, police car, firetruck, or other emergency vehicle, our law firm, Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC can assist you. Call (877) 278-6890 today to set up your initial consultation.
Commercial Vehicle Accidents
There are also other vehicles that respond to the location of crashes; tow trucks for instance. While you may think about tow trucks as the people who show up to help to clear up the aftermath of a vehicle accident or assist an incapacitated vehicle, accidents involving tow trucks occur more often than you would anticipate, and can cause significant damage to vehicles, as well as serious accidental injury to people. Like large over-the-road trucks (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are big, bulky, quite heavy and not very agile. Their size and decrease in mobility play a role in the physical damage they can do, and when you put a towed-vehicle into the situation you elevate the risk of accidents even further.Department of Transportation cars and trucks and other specialty vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company trucks, road routine maintenance vehicles, etc.) are all around you, and yet we tend not to notice them as much because we are so accustomed to seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are big, mobile, and can represent dangers on the roadways.You should call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC as soon as possible at (877) 278-6890 if you are involved with an accident with a commercial vehicle.
