Common Causes of Freeway Accidents
Freeway accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, often stemming from negligence. Common causes include:
- Speeding: Excessive speeds reduce reaction times and increase the severity of collisions.
- Distracted Driving: Drivers using phones, eating, or otherwise not paying attention to the road.
- Tailgating: Following too closely leaves little room to stop in sudden traffic changes.
- Lane Changes Without Signaling: Sudden, unsafe lane changes can cause chain-reaction crashes.
- Drunk or Impaired Driving: Alcohol or drugs impair judgment and reaction times.
- Weather Conditions: Rain, fog, or slippery roads can lead to loss of control.
- Construction Zones: Poorly marked zones or improper management can cause accidents.
Our attorneys will investigate the circumstances of your accident to determine its cause and identify all liable parties.
Common Injuries in Freeway Accidents
Due to the high speeds involved, freeway accidents can result in severe injuries, such as:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken bones and fractures
- Internal injuries and organ damage
- Whiplash and neck strain
- Severe cuts, lacerations, and abrasions
- Fatal injuries
If you’ve been injured in a freeway accident, it’s crucial to seek medical attention immediately and consult an experienced attorney to protect your rights.
Who Can Be Held Liable in a Freeway Accident?
Determining liability in a freeway accident can be complex, as multiple parties may share responsibility. Potentially liable parties include:
- Negligent Drivers: For speeding, distracted driving, or other reckless behaviors.
- Commercial Trucking Companies: If a truck driver’s negligence or poor maintenance contributed to the crash.
- Government Agencies: For failing to properly maintain roadways or address hazardous conditions.
- Vehicle Manufacturers: If a vehicle defect, such as brake failure, played a role in the accident.
