Common Causes of Car Accidents

 

There are numerous hazards and conditions that can lead to collisions on the road. Here is a list of just some of the most common causes:

  • Reckless driving – This includes unsafe lane changes, speeding,  running red lights, and tailgating
  • DUI or Drug DUI
  • Distracted driving
  • Driver fatigue or inattentiveness
  • Over-correcting or loss of control
  • Bad road or weather conditions
  • Mechanical defect or failure

Injuries stemming from auto accidents can range from mild to catastrophic. When you’re injured, it can be difficult to carry out the most basic of functions needed to care for yourself and your family. You may be unable to work and have long-lasting medical treatment, making it hard to provide for your family.
