Defective Roadways and Equipment
Some car accident cases involve factors external to drivers. A poor road design may cause or contribute to accidents. Construction debris or other items on the road also cause injury accidents. Other accidents are caused by defective equipment; brake failures and tire blowouts are common examples. Frequently, responsibility for a motor vehicle accident may not rest with a single party. And insurance companies are not always cooperative, resulting in a personal injury case that must be addressed in the courts. Juries may compare the negligence of several partially responsible parties and adjust damage awards according to the degree of comparative negligence.
