Accidents Involving Seniors

As reported by research 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 rise beginning at age 75 and rise dramatically after age 80. And while they came to the conclusion that this is mainly due to an heightened 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 additional risk. If you or a family member in the Huntington Beach, 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 discuss your possible solutions.It is well-known that as we grow old we begin to lose many of our skills. Our hearing can decrease, as can our vision, energy level, cognitive ability, and response time. The inability - or delayed ability - to react to a hazardous or high risk situation can be the difference between evading an accident entirely or becoming part of the accident statistics. With the advent of better medical innovation and the proper nutrition, people are living for a longer time and have more active daily routines. As a result, there are more senior vehicle operators on the road, and hence there are more accidents involving 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 Huntington Beach, 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 appointment and to go over your potential remedies.

Failure to Yield Accidents

People all over the Huntington Beach, CA area "fail to yield" on a frequent basis, resulting in numerous accidents.

Failure to yield accidents also quite often occur at flashing red lights when a car or truck fails to come to a complete stop, flashing yellow lights, and when drivers assertively merge onto roads and/or when lanes merge.While failure to yield accidents are typically more minor, they can still result in property damage and personal injuries, which may result in loss of earnings because of lost time at a job and disability.

Driving While Texting Accidents

Texting behind the wheel of a moving vehicle is the worst imaginable thing you can do, and is not only risky, 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 possibility of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have prohibited texting while driving, it still happens, and it still creates accidents on a consistent basis. If you or a loved one or family member have been in a traffic accident while texting, or while the other driver was texting, you most definitely need to contact us. Our notoriety for aiding Huntington Beach, CA area drivers is exemplary, and with the considerable nature of this infraction you need a team of legal professionals who is not only experienced 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)While motorcycles are responsible for only 0.6% of all motor vehicle miles traveled, riders make up 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) deaths, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger car accidents bring about an injury or dying, 80% of motorcycle crashes account for injury or loss of life. Also, motorcyclist deaths were far more likely to occur in metropolitan than in outlying 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 are exposed to many of the very same situations as motorcyclists, but at lower rates of speed. Cyclists usually are not as visible as cars and/or trucks, they aren't as steady on two tires as a car or truck is on 4 wheels, and a crash involving a bike has a very high percent likelihood of bringing about physical damage. 81% of pedestrian deaths in 2018 happened in urban locations, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities involving someone 70+ in 2018 happened at intersections, in contrast 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 want a competent law firm. You need Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC.

Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents

As you can likely imagine, the more practice an individual receives driving, the more confident they become and the more effective driver they end up. Unfortunately, Teen and brand 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 concluded that Teens are more likely to speed and tailgate than experienced 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 highest percentage in speed related fatalities (32% and 22%) when compared to any other age-group in 2016, and that driving too fast was an issue in 31% of Teen driver fatalities. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) found that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are practically 3 x more likely to be in a life threatening auto crash than drivers aged 20 and older, and that car accidents are the leading cause of loss of life for US teenagers.Granted, no one starts off as a good driver; we all needed practice, and several of us are still learning! But teenagers who don't have experience are obviously more susceptible to getting into car or truck accidents. In spite of all of the stats indicating that Teen drivers can make some poor decisions, the reality is that they are on the road with us, and their abilities affect you and your loved ones.If you have been associated with an 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 any sort of accident are also exposed to collisions of their own. In 2018, 168 people died in crashes connected with 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 amounted to about 13% to 14% of the deaths.

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 scene of traffic accidents; tow trucks for instance. While you may very well think of tow trucks as the guys who show up to help clear up the aftermath of an accident or assist an incapacitated vehicle, accidents involving tow trucks occur more frequently than you would imagine, and can be the source of appreciable physical damage to vehicles, as well as serious injury to people. Like large over-the-road vehicles (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are massive, bulky, quite heavy and not very maneuverable. Their size and diminished mobility contribute to the damage they can do, and when you put a towed-vehicle into the mix you elevate the chances of accidents even further.Department of Transportation vehicles and other service provider vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company vehicles, highway repairs and maintenance vehicles, etc.) are all over the place, 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 heavy, on the move, and can represent hazards 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 a vehicle accident with a business vehicle.
