Common Causes of Car Accidents

Car wrecks are often the result of distracted driving. Whether caused by texting, eating, or adjusting the radio, distractions take the driver’s focus off the road and increase the risk of collisions. 

Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs also contributes to many crashes. Impaired drivers have slower reaction times and impaired judgment, making roads dangerous for everyone.

Speeding and reckless driving are additional factors. Driving at excessive speeds reduces the time a driver has to react to obstacles and increases the severity of an impact. Reckless behaviors, such as tailgating or weaving between lanes, further endanger all road users. 

Poor road conditions also play a role in many accidents. Potholes, uneven surfaces, and lack of proper signage can lead to loss of control. Weather-related issues like heavy rain, snow, or fog decrease visibility and road traction, increasing the likelihood of accidents. Understanding these causes can help drivers stay aware of potential dangers and practice safer habits on the road.

Types of Compensation Available

When pursuing compensation after a car accident, you may be entitled to both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages refer to measurable financial losses caused by the accident. Non-economic damages cover intangible impacts on your life.

Medical expenses are a common type of economic damage. These costs include emergency care, hospital stays, follow-up appointments, prescriptions, and physical therapy. Future medical costs may also be included if the injuries require ongoing treatment. 

Lost wages represent another form of economic compensation. This category accounts for income you couldn’t earn while recovering. If injuries affect your ability to work long-term, you may also seek damages for reduced earning capacity.

Non-economic damages address the emotional and psychological effects of the accident. Pain and suffering compensation accounts for physical discomfort and emotional distress. Such distress may include anxiety, depression, or loss of enjoyment in daily activities. Additional non-economic damages could involve loss of companionship or the strain placed on personal relationships as a result of injuries.

Both types of compensation serve to address the range of impacts caused by a car accident. They aim to help you recover financially while acknowledging the broader impact on your quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Answers To Your Questions
  • What Experience Does Parker Alexander Have to Help Me?
    When you work with our office, you will be working directly with attorneys that have decades of experience handling complex cases. We hold various prestigious awards and accolades and have successfully litigated for our clients in the state of Louisiana. More than that, we have helped obtain millions in compensation for our clients.
  • How Long Will the Legal Process Take?
    Each case is unique. Without speaking directly with a personal injury attorney from Parker Alexander, we cannot give an exact estimate of time; however, most cases can be considered complete anywhere between a few months and a year from the time the claim is filed. There is a statute of limitations on bringing cases before a court though, which is why it is important you contact our office right away.
  • Do I Need an Injury Attorney for My Case?
    In most cases involving serious personal injuries, medical negligence, wrongful death, or other complications, it is highly encouraged that you work with an attorney. Legal representation can not only guide you in the right direction but help you obtain compensation for the wrongs that you have endured. Additionally, lawyers will fight for your rights as a victim and never leave you facing large corporations and insurance companies alone.
  • Do I Still Have a Claim If My Health Insurance Paid for My Medical Bills?
    Yes, you may still file a personal injury claim even if your health insurance provider paid for your medical bills. You are entitled to the full value of your medical treatment. Meaning, the actual cost of treatment, not just the co-pay and deductible. Insurance carriers will attempt to reduce your damages by offering to pay out of pocket expenses. Do not allow your insurance company to treat you unfairly. Let us help you ensure you recover fair and just compensation.
  • How Do I Determine the Value of My Claim?
    The amount of monetary compensation you are entitled to is dependent upon the unique circumstances involved in your case. Contact our attorneys today to schedule a consultation. We will review your case and determine what damages you’re entitled to recover.
