Car Accidents in California
Every day, people have their lives completely torn apart as a result of car crashes in California. These accidents add up to hundreds of accidents each day, thousands each week, and hundreds of thousands annually. Even though accidents take place so frequently here in California, it is impossible to prepare for the impact that one will have on your life.
Car crash victims often have to go through extensive medical care for the injuries that they suffer. We see a significant number of people hospitalized with spinal cord fractures, internal organ injuries, and even brain injuries following accidents.
Unfortunately, many of these accidents are preventable and caused by drivers who fail to operate their vehicles safely.
Some of the leading factors in crashes that take place here in California include:
- Drivers who consume alcohol before heading out on the road.
- Drivers who used drugs before operating their vehicles.
- Exit roadways without checking for other vehicles.
- Drivers who drift between lanes of travel without checking their blind spots.
- Drivers who are too drowsy to operate their vehicles.
- Drivers who fail to yield to others at intersections.
When drivers are negligent while operating their vehicles, they can cause serious accidents that dramatically impact the lives of those involved. If you have been hurt due to a car crash, you may be able to take legal action and hold the person who caused your crash accountable.
