Common Causes of Car AccidentsAfter a car accident, you’ll likely be in shock and you may be uncertain about what led up to the accident. Too often, unsafe drivers cause accidents that can have serious consequences for victims. The majority of car accidents happen when unsafe drivers fail to adhere to traffic regulations. Their negligence can have a significant impact on the lives of victims.

Although car accidents happen for many reasons, the most common causes include:

  • Drivers failing to obey traffic laws
  • Distracted driving or texting while driving
  • Improper vehicle maintenance
  • Intoxicated driving
  • Reckless driving
  • Excessive speed
  • Inexperienced drivers

No matter the cause of your accident, your primary focus should be on your recovery. Yet, beyond recovery, you still need to file claims with both the at-fault driver’s insurance and your own, seek punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence), and possibly file for disability as well as other forms of compensation.
