Accidents Involving Seniors

As reported by a report done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2017, 18% of all traffic fatalities in 2016 were among people 65 years of age and older. A 2019 report from AAA (The Automobile Association of America) determined that per mile traveled, deadly crash rates escalate starting at age 75 and increase sharply after age 80. And while they concluded that this is largely due to an more significant risk of personal injury and medical issues, not an increased risk of crashes, if they are behind the wheel of the other car you may be at a increased risk. If you or a family member in the La Sierra, 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 appointment and to go over your potential solutions.It is widely known that as we age we begin to lose many of our abilities. Our hearing can decrease, as can our eyesight, energy level, cognitive ability, and response time. The inability - or delayed ability - to respond to a risk or high risk circumstance can be the difference between preventing an accident altogether or becoming part of the accident data. With the advent of better medical technology and nutrition, people are living longer and have more active life styles. As a result, there are more senior vehicle operators on the road, and thereby 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 La Sierra, 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 go over your possible solutions.

Failure to Yield Accidents

People all over the La Sierra, CA area "fail to yield" on a frequent basis, resulting in numerous accidents.

Failure to yield accidents also frequently occur at flashing red lights when a car or truck fails to make a complete stop, flashing yellow lights, and when drivers assertively merge onto roads and/or when lanes merge.While failure to yield accidents are typically more minor, they may result in property damage and personal harm, which may contribute to loss of earnings because of lost time at a job and disability.

Texting While Driving Accidents

Texting behind the wheel of a moving vehicle 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 elevates the risk of crashing a startling 23 times. And while 47 out of 50 states have prohibited texting while driving, it still happens, and it still causes accidents on a frequent basis.

(Motorcycle Industry Council, 2019)Even though motorcycles make up only 0.6% of all vehicle miles traveled, riders account for 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all occupant (driver and passenger) fatalities, (NHTSA, 2019) and while 20% of passenger car accidents bring about an injury or death, 80% of motorcycle accidents bring about injury or loss of life. Also, motorcyclist fatalities were more apt to take place in urban 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.Cyclists endure quite a few of the very same concerns as motorcyclists, but at decreased speeds. Cyclists may not be as obvious as cars and/or trucks, they aren't as stable on two wheels as a car or truck is on four wheels, and a traffic accident including a bike has a extremely high percent likelihood of contributing to physical personal injury. 81% of pedestrian deaths in 2018 occurred in metropolitan areas, and 40% of pedestrian fatalities among individuals 70 and older in 2018 took place at intersections, in contrast to 22% for those younger than Age 70.

Teenage and Inexperienced Driver Accidents

As you can probably imagine, the more training somebody may get driving, the more certain they become and the better driver they develop into. Unfortunately, teenage and brand new drivers are required 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 inclined to speed and tailgate than seasoned drivers. That same report revealed that Teens normally 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 representation in speed-related fatal crashes (32% and 22%) in comparison 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) discovered that per mile driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are almost 3 times more likely to be involved in a fatal accident than drivers aged 20 and older, and that motor vehicle crashes are the primary reason of death for US teens.Granted, no one starts off as an excellent driver; every one of us needed practice, and some of us are continuing to learn! But Teens who lack practical experience are definitely more vulnerable to getting into car accidents. In spite of all of the studies showing that Teen drivers can make a handful of mediocre choices, the hard truth is that they are on the highway with us, and their abilities affect you and your loved ones.If you or someone you know has been involved in an automobile accident connected with a teenage or new/unskilled driver, you need to connect with Law Offices of John C.

Emergency Vehicle Accidents

Regrettably, men and women responding to traffic accidents are also exposed to accidents of their own. In 2018, 168 people died in crashes connected with emergency vehicles. The vast majority of these fatalities were occupants of non-emergency vehicles (56%); fatalities among pedestrians, emergency vehicle drivers, and emergency vehicle passengers each amounted to about 13% to 14% of the fatalities.

Commercial Vehicle Accidents

There are also other vehicles that respond to the location of car accidents; tow trucks for example. While you may think about tow trucks as the men and women who show up to help to clear away the aftermath of a crash or assist an incapacitated vehicle, accidents involving tow trucks occur more frequently than you would envision, and can be the source of significant physical damage to vehicles, in addition to severe injuries to individuals. Like large over-the-road trucks (semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, etc.) tow trucks are big, bulky, quite heavy and not very agile. Their size and decrease in mobility play a role in the destruction they can do, and when you insert a towed-vehicle into the situation you elevate the chances of accidents even further.Department of Transportation vehicles and other support vehicles (tow trucks, electric power company trucks, road repairs and maintenance vehicles, etc.) are all around you, and yet we usually do not notice them as much because we are so acquainted with seeing them. The fact is, however, that they are big, on the move, and can represent risks on the roads.You should call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC as soon as possible at (877) 278-6890 if you are involved with a collision with a commercial vehicle.
