Car Accidents in California
Every year, innocent people across the state of California are left with debilitating injuries as a result of traffic accidents. Unfortunately, many accidents that we see here in Southern California are entirely preventable. Innocent people are forced to deal with the overwhelming consequences of crashes every single day. Negligent actions continue to be the leading cause of collisions. Some examples of factors that lead to crashes taken place include:
- Fatigue: Fatigue is also a major cause of car accidents. When drivers are tired, they may fall asleep at the wheel or have trouble paying attention to the road.
- Speeding: Speeding is another leading cause of car accidents. When drivers are traveling above the posted speed limits, they have less time to react to hazards on the road and are more likely to lose control of their vehicles.
- Distracted driving: Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of car accidents. It can be anything from texting and driving to taking your eyes off the road to look at something else.
- Driving under the influence: Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is a major cause of car accidents. Impaired Drivers have slowed reaction times, poor judgment, and can make bad decisions which can lead to accidents.
These are just some of the many common causes of car accidents that result in injuries. If you have been injured in a car accident, it is important to contact a Los Angeles car accident attorney as soon as possible, who can help you recover the compensation you deserve.
