Why Northern California Drivers Are At Risk of a Car Accident

Americans put a tremendous number of miles on their cars, often commuting long distances to work and in day-to-day errands and business. Hundreds of thousands of American children get to and from their schools in busses and by family car. We spend more time on the road that people in any other country and in California we drive more that people in most states. It all adds up to a definite risk of injury when you´re in your vehicle.

Over the last two years four large sections of Northern California Freeways have been named among the top 50 worst commutes in the United States by The Daily Beast. It is unfortunate but perhaps not surprising that car accidents are common in the in both the Bay Area and throughout Northern California. On freeways, side streets, and in parking lots - wherever there are moving cars, there will be accidents. Anyone - driver, passenger, or pedestrian - can end up being involved in a motor vehicle accident, in light of the many risk factors:

• Reckless drivers
• Distracted drivers
• Inexperienced drivers
• Drivers Talking on Cell Phones
• Drunk or drugged drivers
• Unsafe large trucks, including tractor-trailers
• Unsafe cars, SUVs and light trucks
• Unsafe vehicle loads
• Unsafe road conditions
• Malfunctioning of traffic signals or traffic signs
• Hit-and-run drivers
• Unlicensed drivers

When Is Another Party´s Liability for an Car Accident

The range of scenarios in which a car accident can occur is quite broad. It is particularly difficult for someone who has incurred a car accident injury to deal with additional emotions that are a consequence of the accident resulting from the fault of someone else - for example:

• Another driver´s mistakes: poor driving skills, aggressive driving, alcohol or drug use, distractions, etc.
• A municipality failure: to make roads safe, use adequate signs, signals, guardrails, warnings, potholes, construction, etc.
• Vehicle manufacturers: inadequate materials, design, manufacture.
