Millions of Americans depend on automotive transportation to get them to and fro in life. Despite increased safety measures like seatbelts and air bags, auto accidents still affect millions of people every year. In fact, according to the most recent Traffic Safety Report published by the U.S. Department of Transportation, approximately 2.3 million people were injured and another 32,000 people were killed in traffic accidents in 2006.
Most accidents are caused by negligence on the part of at least one driver. Negligence may come in the form of not obeying traffic laws (running red lights or speeding), being distracted (talking on a cell phone or trying to accomplish another task while driving) or being impaired (drunk driving or driving under the influence). Anyone who causes an accident as a result of negligence or disregard for others on the road may be held accountable for any damages caused by their actions. Victims may be able to seek compensation for medical bills, prescription drug expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages and pain and suffering. An experienced South Florida auto accident attorney can help you determine if you have legal recourse for injuries you sustained in an auto accident.
