Information About Accident Reconstruction
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) explains that accident reconstruction experts, also called professional crash investigators, photograph and measure vehicles involved in collisions. They inspect the scene, inspect the vehicles, and interview the people involved in the accident.
They collect data like skid marks to document the crash dynamics, like the speed at which vehicles were traveling at the time of impact, the final position of the vehicles, and the point of impact. The accident reconstruction also uses information from the police report and medical records of the people who were injured in the collision.
Some vehicles now have Event Data Recorders (EDRs) that can provide useful information for experts who measure crash severity and other aspects of accident reconstruction, according to the NHTSA.
Accident Reconstruction Services May Be Essential To Your Case
Depending on the circumstances, accident reconstruction may be essential to your financial recovery. In order to secure a court verdict through a lawsuit, your lawyers must establish that the other party caused your accident. These services can prove useful in demonstrating that they violated a traffic law or were otherwise acting negligently when they caused the collision.
How To Hold The At-Fault Party Accountable For Your Car Accident
Although it might seem obvious that we could take legal action against the other driver, especially if they received a ticket, it is not always that easy to hold them accountable for your injuries. We will have to prove all of these factors before they will have liability for your losses:
- They breached their duty of care toward you. Everyone who drives a car in Florida must obey the traffic laws. If the other driver was tailgating you, for example, they breached their duty to maintain a safe following distance and to drive with caution. Breaching a legal duty is negligence.
- Their negligence must be what caused the accident. Let’s say that the car collided with you from behind because they were following too closely. The careless conduct of tailgating was the cause of the collision.
- You must have quantifiable damages. Physical injuries satisfy this requirement of measurable loss.
Our team can use accident reconstruction (among other sources of evidence) to meet these criteria. Using this information, we can pursue compensation for your injuries and other losses.
Categories Of Damages Available In Pembroke Pines Car Accident Cases
There is no predetermined amount of compensation you could recover for your injuries. Every case is different.
Here are some of the categories of damages we have won for our clients:
- Medical expenses. Usually, a person can recover the cost of the medical treatment they needed for their injuries. This category can include bills from the ambulance, emergency room, hospital stays, surgery, and other necessary care. Your future medical needs should also be accounted for.
- Long-term care. When a person suffers a debilitating injury like paralysis from spinal cord damage in a car accident, they might lose their mobility or independence. If you need assistance with medical treatments and personal care, you deserve compensation for the cost of this care.
- Lost wages. If you did not get paid while recuperating from your wounds, that financial loss can get added to your claim. Any loss of potential future earnings can also be included, especially if you are forced to change jobs or stop working entirely.
- Pain and suffering. The physical discomfort, emotional distress, and inconvenience of getting injured in a car accident can be a part of your injury claim. Compensation for your suffering is meant to mitigate these unfair consequences of the at-fault party’s negligence.
We might be able to seek additional compensation on behalf of the family if you lost a loved one in the collision.
The Filing Deadline In Your Pembroke Pines Car Accident Claim
If you wait too long to file, you may lose your right to compensation. The statute of limitations in Florida for a personal injury case is four years, under Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). If you lost a loved one in the crash, the statute of limitations for the wrongful death lawsuit is only two years, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d).
