Car Accidents in San Diego

Commonly caused by distracted driving, impaired driving and speeding, car accidents occur daily across the U.S. – often in high-density urban areas like San Diego. 

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), traffic fatalities during the first half of 2021 increased 18.4% since the first half of 2020 and the estimated 20,160 fatalities during the first half of 2021 is the highest since 2006. These statistics demonstrate how often negligence – such as driving without a seatbelt, driving under the influence or speeding – is involved in car crashes that result in the wrongful injuries and deaths of others.  According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, in 2019, 50% of all drivers killed in motor vehicle crashes who were tested, tested positive for legal and/ or illegal drugs, an increase of 8% from 2018. And NHTSA estimated 47% of passengers killed in 2018 were not wearing a seat belt.

Unfortunately, few people plan for such an event, and even fewer understand the process or how to protect themselves thoroughly in the aftermath of an accident. This is why it is essential to hire a car accident attorney who is well-versed in personal injury law and experienced in how to obtain the compensation you are entitled to under those laws.

Car Accident Injuries

Injuries in a car accident can have a wide range of severity. These can include:

• Bruises, lacerations, and sprains
• Whiplash
• Concussions
• Broken bones
• Neck, back, hip, and shoulder injuries
• Internal injuries and bleeding
• Brain injuries, including traumatic brain injuries leading to permanent disabilities
• Spinal cord injuries that can result in forms of paralysis
• Loss of limbs
• Loss of eyesight, hearing, and other sensory capacities

Injuries like these are not just physical but can result in emotional or psychological damage lasting long after the crash., often requiring therapies for recovery. Pain and suffering can be challenging to put value on, so you need an experienced attorney who knows how to quantify them. No matter what type of injury you have suffered from a negligent driver, you deserve adequate compensation. An experienced car accident attorney can help you navigate complicated legal issues and better calculate the cost of your medical expenses following an accident.

At Queen Yasmine Injury Law, we will fight with passion, conviction, and care until justice is served.  We know the rules of the road and the California Vehicle Code – with expertise in accident reconstruction, dangerous roadway surfaces and product liability – and are here to help you get the compensation you deserve.

Causes of Car Accidents

The leading causes of car accidents are reckless and impaired driving such as:

• Driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs
• Texting while driving or engaging in other distracting behavior
• Speeding
• Running red lights and stop signs
• Unsafe lane changes
• Following too closely
• Simply not paying attention
• and violating other traffic laws

Comparative Negligence in Car Accident Claims

When both drivers are at fault in a car crash, it generally falls under California’s comparative fault policy. Under this policy, you can still recover damages reduced by the amount of fault you had for causing the incident. So, for example, if it is determined that you had a 45 percent fault, your damages would be reduced by that amount.

Can I File a Car Accident Claim After Insurance Pays?

Since most insurance settlements state that the amount agreed upon will be the only compensation paid, once you sign a settlement agreement, it’s usually difficult to recover any more compensation. Call our firm today to learn more about what next steps you can take if you have already signed an agreement.
