The Effects Of Driver Fatigue Car Accidents In Boynton Beach, FL
According to Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) research, there were 3,129 car accidents in Florida caused by driver fatigue in 2020. As many as 114 of these accidents resulted in serious injuries with six leading to fatalities.
While driver fatigue might be connected to trucks and other long-haul drivers, it can affect anyone. Driver fatigue can cause:
- The driver to doze off
- Inability to concentrate
- Slowed response times
- Poor decision-making
- Drifting from your lane
- Loss of peripheral vision
- Brief microsleep episodes
Our personal injury lawyer serving Boynton Beach can help collect evidence that proves the at-fault driver’s fatigue led to the accident. We will also prove you are entitled to recover damages and build a strong case file on your behalf.
How Our Driver Fatigue Car Accident Lawyer Builds Your Case File
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) research, driver fatigue can be caused by:
- Disruption of your normal sleep cycle
- Long periods without sleeping
- Medications that lead to drowsiness
- Monotony and prolonged inactivity
- Sleep disorders or disturbances
- Sleeplessness for multiple days
Our legal team will investigate your accident to prove the at-fault driver’s fatigue. The evidence can include the at-fault driver’s medical records and medication lists. It can also include your medical records, employment records, injury photos, and accident scene photos.
The evidence our driver fatigue car accident attorney serving injured clients in Boynton Beach collects is used to steer your case toward a financial settlement versus a trial.
Our Car Accident Lawyer Will Document Your Recoverable Damages
After our investigation proves the at-fault driver’s negligence and financial liability, we create a detailed list of your financial expenses and losses. Damages we fight to recover for you include:
- Economic damages: Past and future medical bills and lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, treatment-related travel expenses, and property damage or destruction
- Non-economic damages: Physical disability or disfigurement, ongoing pain and suffering, mental anguish, and emotional distress
The loss of a loved one in the accident could entitle specific family members to wrongful death damages. These can include:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Loss of your loved one’s income
- Loss of their domestic contributions
- Loss of consortium and support
- Loss of companionship and guidance
Our law firm will ensure your wrongful death case is filed by the appropriate family members. We will also ensure all notification and filing deadlines are met.
Your Boynton Beach Case Must Comply With Florida’s Statute Of Limitations
Because your accident happened in Boynton Beach, if it leads to a lawsuit, its filing is governed by the following statutes of limitations:
- According to Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a), you generally have four years from the date of the accident to file your personal injury lawsuit.
- According to Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d), you generally have two years from the date of a loved one’s demise to file your wrongful death lawsuit.
While complying with the statute of limitations is mandatory, it can also be complicated since many circumstances of the accident can cause it to fluctuate. The best way to ensure the filing deadline is correctly interpreted is to let our car accident lawyer handle it for you.
