Motor vehicle accident compensation
What are the causes of motor vehicle accidents?
• Weather- Slick roads, fog, dirt and dust, and other occurrences are just some of the physical contributors to accidents on travel ways.
• Mechanical failure- Faulty brakes, tread bare tires, and worn windshield wipers all frequently lead to accidents.
• Driver error- High speed, failure to yield and properly signal, ignoring traffic signs and signals, as well as being distracted are common issues in many motor vehicle accidents
Prevention is possible
• Slow down - Going even just a few miles over the posted speed limit can greatly increase your chances of being involved in an accident. Start early and take your time.
• Pay attention -Distractions are plentiful when traveling. Minimize distractions like cell phones and adjusting controls and focus on the road.
• Get regular tune-ups - Taking care of your car is part of your responsibility as a car owner.
If you are involved in motor vehicle accidents, stay put, and wait for the police. Don't leave the scene of the accident. Wait for the police or proper authority to come and make an official report of the accident.
