According to research from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute, around 80 percent of all crashes and 65 percent of close-collisions involve some form of driver distraction.

Car crashes

Car accidents can take a variety of forms such as simple fender benders to catastrophic head-on collisions. The type of crash determines who may be at fault, as does the scope and nature of the injuries sustained by the victims and the extent of their financial losses.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) statistics that driver errors are a major reason behind motor vehicle crashes. Even the tiniest distractions such as flipping through radio stations making-up or looking at a map can result in a serious accident. Other causes of car accidents include speeding, reckless driving drunk driving, unsafe road conditions and weather, as well as elderly or inexperienced drivers.

A seasoned auto accident lawyer will help you get the compensation you deserve, which could include for future and past medical expenses as well as lost wages, physical and mental anxiety, and other damages. They can also make sure that your accident claim includes insurance coverage for uninsured and sub-insured drivers, in the event that they are required. This is especially crucial if the person at fault is not insured or is only covered to the minimum amount required under New York law.

Underinsured or uninsured motorists

Certain drivers do not have insurance and others only have a limited amount of coverage. It can be difficult to recover compensation if an uninsured or uninsured motorist causes a collision. In these cases, it is important to have a knowledgeable attorney representing you as well as the insurance company.

When the other driver's liability limits aren't high enough to pay for your losses, you may be able to file a claim under your own insurance policy's underinsured/uninsured motorist coverage. This type of insurance is often included in a comprehensive policy and can offer you important security if you're involved in an accident that is serious.

The process of filing UIM/UM claims is similar to that of filing a traditional car crash claim. It usually involves submitting copies of your medical bills and repair bills for your automobile. The insurance company will examine these along with other documents to determine if your losses fall within the limits of the other driver's insurance.

It's important to consult a New York City auto accident lawyer as soon following the accident as soon as is possible and immediately file a UIM/UM particularly in the event that the other driver claims they don't have insurance or do not have adequate coverage. This allows your lawyer to work with the other driver's insurance provider and their own underinsured/uninsured coverage providers to get you maximum compensation for your loss.

We will keep track of every physical evidence that is found in your case. This includes taking photos of the scene of the accident and your property, like dents, broken glass, and cracked device screens. We will also take note of any reports of an accident or police report and any information about witnesses.

New York State's law is based on the principle of comparative negligence. This means that if you are found to be partly responsible for an accident, you will have your damages reduced by the percentage of blame you are awarded. In addition, the defendant could be found to be completely responsible for the incident and thus ineligible to recover in any way.

Be careful not to give any written or oral statements to representatives from the at-fault parties' insurance companies, as these could be later used against you in court. It is recommended that you see an ophthalmologist as soon as possible after the accident. Certain injuries may take a while to manifest and may be used against you in court if later you try to claim compensation.
