Accidents Typically Caused by Negligence

No matter how safe and precautious a person is when driving, a serious accident can be close to impossible to prevent when another driver is operating his or her vehicle recklessly. Although the State of New Jersey allows injured victims of negligence the opportunity to seek compensatory damages from the party that caused their injuries, establishing a strong case against the defendant can be challenging. Depending on the type of accident and the facts of each individual case, different legal arguments may be needed. Understanding the common types of auto accidents typically caused by negligence can help ensure a strong auto accident claim is filed against the careless driver.

  1. Single-Vehicle Accidents – Single vehicle accidents can sometimes be caused by driver error, but these accidents can also be the result of dangerous road conditions and defective auto parts. When the accident was caused as a result of the injured person’s own fault, some compensation can still be obtained through New Jersey’s Personal Injury Protection insurance coverage mandates.
  1. Accidents Involving Multiple Vehicles – When an auto accident involves two or more motor vehicles, there will likely be competing stories about what or who caused the accident. Through witness testimony, video surveillance, police reports, or other evidence collected at the scene, compensation may be obtained from all parties whose negligent actions led to the accident.
  1. Accidents Caused by Drunk Driving – People who get behind the wheel while intoxicated can experience slowed reaction times, difficulty in being able to control their vehicle, and even blurred vision. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, on average, 28 people die every day as a consequence of drunk driving in the United States. Based on this figure, that equates to the death of a person every 58 minutes.
