If you have been involved in a car accident that was caused by a hazardous road condition, you should contact a NJ injury lawyer to get the compensation that you deserve.
Millions of Americans are killed on the road each year as the result of negligence. Despite the common belief that these accidents are caused by the negligence of other drivers on the road, dangerous and hazardous road conditions account for a majority of these unnecessary accidents. Hazardous road conditions that result in an accident are not your fault and not your responsibility to pay for.
Dangerous Road Conditions Leading to Accidents
Although it is the driver’s responsibility to drive cautiously at all times, dangerous road conditions are ultimately the responsibility of construction crews and the governing officials who hired them. Some hazardous road conditions that common lead to car accidents include:
– Potholes
– Obstructed traffic signs
– Poor road designs
– Unmarked curves and blind corners
– Hazardous debris
– Overgrown trees and other plant life
– Uneven paved roads
– Cracks in asphalt
– Icy and other weather damaged roads
Dangerous Road Car Accidents
Poorly kept roads and highways can create dangerous driving conditions causing even the most cautious and safest driver to lose control and cause an accident. The true danger of a hazardous road comes from a driver’s inability to be in complete control of the decisions they make on the road and the movement of their vehicle. As such, these accidents are much more dangerous than normal.
These hazardous road conditions result in too many accidents and even death that easily could have been prevented. All it takes is for one person to be affected by a dangerous road condition, and that one person may end up injuring numerous people in a multi-car collision.
