Auto Accidents
Jacksonville Car Accident Lawyers
More than 6 million auto accidents take place in the U.S. every year. An estimated 3 million injuries occur as a result of these accidents - 2 million of which are permanent injuries.
Underlying Causes of Auto Accidents
Numerous auto accidents are caused by either negligence or intentional, reckless conduct on the part of a driver. Other accidents may result from other factors, such as unsafe roads, hazardous weather conditions or defective vehicle parts. Improperly functioning safety equipment, such as seat belts or airbags, can result in needless injury. When a party involved in a car accident has failed to exercise reasonable care, grounds may exist for a personal injury claim, whether the party is another driver, a commercial transportation company, a manufacturer, or the local government that bears the responsibility for maintaining safe roads.
