Vehicle Accidents in California
Recent studies indicate that the leading cause of vehicle accidents in the United States is distracted driving, which is responsible for more deadly accidents than drunk driving and speeding. Drivers can be distracted by a number of things, such as cell phones, other passengers, outside sights, and more. Even if a driver is only distracted for one moment, that’s enough to cause a serious collision.
The police are investigating to determine which vehicle had the right of way and if distracted driving, or any other form of negligence, was involved. Depending on what their reports conclude, the injured woman may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit with the help of a California personal injury attorney.
