T-bone crashes: intersection races and other causes

We wrote before about the dangers of distracted driving. We also wrote about the fact that distracted driving is on the rise.

Distracted driving takes on many forms. It involves any activity that removes attention to driving. That means, cell phone use, eating, grooming, adjusting vehicle audio and disciplining children are all forms of driver distraction.

Next, consider the importance of hiring a seasoned car accident lawyer, like us. We are personal injury lawyers who respond promptly to the advantage our car accident clients.

We told you about a recent case in which our client pocked $442,224 which involved a big truck that sped through an intersection and t-boned our client.

We also recently prosecuted a contested case involving a driver who raced through an intersection and t-boned our client. In another winning result, the case settled 2-days before trial for the $50,000 policy limits.

The defense in the case claimed that our client turned left in front of her oncoming automobile. We analyzed the crash investigation report and instantly realized it was wrong. The defense persisted, so we retained an expert. Our expert retrieved the black box data from the defense’s automobile. The black box data disclosed the defendant was speeding, driving 70 miles per hour. The speed limit was 40 miles per hour.

The disclosure of our expert’s report caused the case to resolve before trial.
