Accidents Involving Seniors

According to an investigation done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic deaths in 2016 were among people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 study from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) reported that per mile traveled, deadly crash rates rise beginning at age 75 and increase sharply after age 80. And while they concluded that this is primarily due to an heightened risk of injury and medical problems, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are driving the other car you may be at a increased risk. If you or a family member in the South El Monte, CA area have been in an accident involving a senior citizen, or if you are a Senior driver and have been in an accident, contact Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free assessment and to look at your possible solutions.It is widely known that as we grow old we begin to lose many of our abilities. Our hearing can lessen, as can our eyesight, energy level, cognitive ability, and response time. The failure - or delayed ability - to react to a risk or unsafe situation can be the difference between steering clear of an accident entirely or becoming part of the accident studies. With the development of enhanced medical technological advances and diet, people are living for a longer period and have more active lifestyles. Subsequently, there are more senior vehicle operators on the road, and consequently there are more accidents that involve older drivers. According to Consumer Reports, in 2017 over 3.5 million Americans 85 and older held a driver's license. If you or a family member in the South El Monte, CA area have been in an accident involving a senior citizen, or if you are over 65 and have been in an accident, contact Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free assessment and to discuss your possible solutions.

Failure to Yield Accidents

Motorists all over the South El Monte, CA area "fail to yield" on a day to day basis, resulting in countless accidents. "Failure to yield" is exactly what it sounds like: someone fails to yield the right of way to someone else, resulting in an accident.Failure to yield accidents are quite common in South El Monte, CA and frequently occur at intersections, with an excessive amount of accidents as a result of left-hand turns. Failure to yield accidents also frequently occur at blinking red lights when a car or truck fails to come to a complete stop, flashing yellow lights, and when drivers aggressively merge onto roads and/or when lanes merge.Whereas failure to yield accidents are often more minor, they can still result in property damage and physical injuries, which may lead to loss of earnings because of lost time at a job and disability.

Texting While Driving Accidents

Texting driving is the worst feasible thing you can do, and is not only risky, it is quite commonplace. A 2019 Driver Knowledge study determined that 1 out of every 3 people text while driving, even though texting while driving will increase the possibility of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have prohibited texting while driving, it still takes place, and it still results in accidents on a routine basis.

Motorcycle Accidents

(Motorcycle Industry Council, 2019)While motorcycles make up only 0.6% of all motor vehicle miles traveled, riders make up 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) fatalities, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger vehicle crashes bring about injury or dying, 80% of motorcycle crashes bring about injury or death. Also, motorcyclist deaths were far more likely to occur in the city than in rural areas (60% vs. 38%).

Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents

Accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists can be even more complicated than vehicle-to-vehicle accidents because the other party may or may not have insurance.Bicyclists deal with quite a few of the same difficulties as motorcyclists, but at lower speeds. Bicyclists usually aren't as noticeable as cars and/or trucks, they aren't as steady on two tires as a car or truck is on four tires, and an accident including a bicycle has a very high percentage likelihood of resulting in bodily trauma. 81% of pedestrian deaths in 2018 happened in metropolitan areas, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities among people 70 and older in 2018 took place at intersections, in contrast to 22% for those younger than 70.

Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents

As you can most likely imagine, the more training a person gets when driving, the more comfortable and confident they become and the more comfortable driver they grow to be. Unfortunately, Teen and inexperienced drivers have to "practice" on the roads with the remainder of us, and they often have a lot to learn! A 2019 Texas A&M Transportation Institute study determined that Teens are more likely to violate the speed limit and tailgate than older drivers. That same report revealed that Teens don't consider driving at 5 to 10 mph above the speed limit to be hazardous.The NHTSA found that drivers ages 15-20 had the highest representation in speed-related fatalities (32% and 22%) as opposed to any other age-group in 2016, and that driving too fast was a consideration in 31% of Teen driver deaths. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) determined that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are nearly 3 times more likely to be involved in a fatal auto crash than drivers aged 20 and older, and that car crashes are the primary cause of loss of life for US teenagers.Granted, no one starts as a really good driver; we all required practice, and many of us are still learning! But Teens who do not have experience are clearly more inclined to getting into car or truck accidents. In spite of all of the statistics demonstrating that teenage drivers can make a lot of poor judgments, the hard truth is that they are driving on the road with us, and their tendencies affect you and your loved ones.If you or someone you know has been involved with a major accident which involves a teen or new/unskilled driver, you need to connect with Law Offices of John C.

Emergency Vehicle Accidents

Sadly, people responding to traffic accidents are also exposed to collisions of their own. In 2018, 168 people died in crashes involving emergency vehicles. The majority of these deaths were occupants of non-emergency vehicles (56%); fatalities among pedestrians, emergency vehicle drivers, and emergency vehicle passengers each accounted for about 13% to 14% of the deaths.

Call (877) 278-6890 today to set up your initial consultation.

Commercial Vehicle Accidents

There are also other vehicles that respond to the location of collisions; tow trucks for example. While you may very well think about tow trucks as the people who make an appearance to help to clear up the aftermath of an accident or assist an incapacitated car or truck, accidents involving tow trucks occur more often than you would expect, and can cause significant damage to vehicles, together with severe personal injury to individuals. Like large over-the-road commercial transport trucks (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are massive, bulky, heavy and not very maneuverable. Their size and diminished mobility play a role in the destruction they can do, and when you insert a towed-vehicle into the mix you elevate the chances of accidents even further.Department of Transportation cars and trucks and other service provider vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company vehicles, highway repairs and maintenance trucks, etc.) are all around you, and yet we tend not to notice them as much because we are so accustomed to seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are big, mobile, and can represent risks on the roadways.You should call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC right away at (877) 278-6890 if you are involved in an accident with a business vehicle.
