Theories of Liability

Negligence

Deciding whether a driver was negligent in a motor vehicle accident can be difficult.  Sometimes you may feel that another driver, a cyclist, or a pedestrian didn’t use a reasonable amount of care, but you may not know exactly which rule or rules he or she broke.  An experienced personal injury lawyer will be able to help you determine if another person was negligent.  The attorney will consider many sources, including state traffic laws, police reports and the statements of witnesses to the accident.

Courts consider many variables in making a determination that a driver or another person was negligent.  These variables may include:

  • Failing to follow traffic signs and signals
  • Disobeying traffic laws
  • Driving on the wrong side of the road
  • Neglecting to signal a turn
  • Driving faster or slower than the posted speed limit
  • Ignoring traffic or weather conditions
  • Driving while under the influence of alcohol or other drugs
