Car Accidents in California
In the state of California, thousands of people are injured every single month following motor vehicle accidents. There are many cases where innocent people are hurt as a result of motorists who acted negligently while operating their vehicles. Some common causes of vehicle crashes that we see here include:
Distracted driving: This is one of the leading causes of car accidents in the state. With the proliferation of technology, more and more drivers are distracted by their phones, GPS devices, and other electronic devices while behind the wheel.
Drunk driving: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is illegal and extremely dangerous. Unfortunately, it continues to be a major problem on California roads.
Speeding: Speed limits exist for a reason - to help keep drivers and pedestrians safe. When drivers ignore these limits, they put themselves and others at risk of serious injury or death in an accident.
Reckless driving: This encompasses a variety of dangerous behaviors behind the wheel, including tailgating, weaving in and out of traffic, running red lights, and more.
