Accidents Involving Seniors
According to a report done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic deaths in 2016 were people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 study from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) found that per mile traveled, lethal crash rates rise starting out at age 75 and increase dramatically after age 80. And while they came to the conclusion that this is principally due to an elevated risk of personal injury and medical complications, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are behind the wheel of the other car you may be at a higher risk. If you or a family member in the Glen Avon, 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 go over your potential remedies.It is well-known that as we grow older we begin to lose a lot of of our effectiveness. Our hearing can decrease, as can our vision, energy level, cognitive ability, and reflexes. The inability - or slowed ability - to respond to a hazardous or unsafe scenario can be the difference between preventing an accident completely or becoming part of the accident statistics. With the advent of superior medical technological innovation and nutrition, people are living for a longer period and have more active lifestyles. Subsequently, there are more senior vehicle operators on the road, and hence there are more accidents that involve elderly drivers. According to Consumer Reports, in 2017 over 3.5 million Americans age 85+ held a driver's license. If you or a family member in the Glen Avon, 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 look at your potential remedies.

Driving While Texting Accidents
Texting behind the wheel of a moving vehicle is the worst imaginable thing you can do, and is not only dangerous, 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 banned texting while driving, it still takes place, and it still creates accidents on a routine basis.

(Motorcycle Industry Council, 2019)Although motorcycles make up only 0.6% of all vehicle miles traveled, riders account for 14% of all traffic deaths and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) deaths, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger car accidents bring about personal injury or loss of life, 80% of motorcycle crashes bring about injury or death. Also, motorcyclist fatalities were more apt to happen in urban than in rural areas (60% vs. 38%).

Pedestrian and Bicycle 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 endure quite a few of the same difficulties as motorcyclists, but at lower speeds. Cyclists may not be as visible as passenger cars and/or trucks, they aren't as secure on two wheels as a car is on 4 tires, and a crash involving a bike has a extremely high percent likelihood of leading to physical personal injury. 81% of pedestrian deaths in 2018 took place in metropolitan areas, and 40% of pedestrian deaths involving someone 70 and older in 2018 happened at intersections, in comparison to 22% for those younger than Age 70.

Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents
As you can most likely imagine, the more training an individual gets when driving, the more self-confident they grow to be and the higher quality driver they end up. Regrettably, teenage and new drivers are forced to "practice" on the road with the remainder of us, and they often have a lot to learn. A 2019 Texas A&M Transportation Institute study concluded that Teens are more likely to violate the speed limit and follow at unsafe distances than older drivers. That same report found that Teens do not consider driving at 5 to 10 mph above the speed limit to be dangerous.The NHTSA found that drivers ages 15-20 had the highest percentage in speed-related fatal collisions (32% and 22%) in comparison to any other age group in 2016, and that speeding was an issue in 31% of Teen driver deaths. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) determined that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are almost 3 times more likely to be in a deadly auto crash than drivers aged 20 and older, and that car crashes are the leading cause of death for US teens.Granted, no one starts as an outstanding driver; we all needed practice, and several of us are continuing to learn! But teenagers who do not have experience are definitely more vulnerable to getting into car or truck accidents. Despite all of the stats demonstrating that teenage drivers can make a lot of mediocre judgments, the reality is that they are on the streets with us, and their performance affects you and your loved ones.If you have been involved in any sort of accident which involves a teen or new/novice driver, you need to call Law Offices of John C.

Emergency Vehicle Accidents
Regrettably, men and women responding to crashes are also subject to collisions of their own. In 2018, 168 people were killed in accidents connected with emergency vehicles. The lions share of these fatalities were occupants of non-emergency vehicles (56%); deaths among pedestrians, emergency vehicle drivers, and emergency vehicle passengers each amounted to about 13% to 14% of the fatalities. When most people are attempting to get somewhere very quickly, accidents can occur. If you or a loved one were injured in an accident involving an ambulance, police car, firetruck, or other emergency vehicle, our law firm, Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC can assist you. Call (877) 278-6890 today to set up your initial consultation.
Commercial Vehicle Accidents
There are also other vehicles that respond to the scene of crashes; tow trucks for example. While you may think of tow trucks as the guys who make an appearance to help clean up the aftermath of a vehicle accident or assist an disabled vehicle, accidents involving tow trucks occur more often than you would expect, and can be the source of considerable damage to vehicles, in addition to serious accidental injury to individuals. Like large over-the-road commercial transport trucks (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are big, bulky, quite heavy and not very maneuverable. Their size and lack of mobility play a role in the damage they can do, and when you add a towed-vehicle into the situation you elevate the chances of accidents even further.Department of Transportation vehicles and other service provider vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company trucks, highway repairs and maintenance vehicles, etc.) are just about everywhere, and yet we normally do not notice them as much because we are so accustomed to seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are large, mobile, and can represent potential issues on the roadways.You should call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC right now at (877) 278-6890 if you are involved with an accident with a business vehicle.
