Most Common Causes of Car Accidents
What did the other driver do to cause your car accident? Did they cut you off without looking? Did they run a red light? Did they speed well beyond the limit and lose control of their car?
Whatever the cause of your car accident, it is important for us to uncover it. Understanding the cause and proving it as such will help establish liability. We want to keep your liability at 0% and the other driver’s liability at 100%.
Some of the most common causes of car accidents are:
- Drunk driving
- Distracted driving like texting and driving
- Speeding
- Running red lights
- Changing lanes without checking mirrors
- Exhausted driving
