Driver Negligence

Driver negligence is the most common cause of motor vehicle accidents. Drivers, or in some cases their employers, can be held financially responsible for the injuries they cause by their negligence. You only need to prove that the driver failed to show a normal level of care. Some types of negligence are specific violations of traffic laws, such as speeding or running a red light, but the simple failure to use proper care also constitutes negligence. Examples include:

  • Speeding
  • Excessive speed for the weather, road, or traffic conditions
  • Running a red light or stop sign
  • Failure to signal
  • Failure to yield right of way
  • Unsafe passing
  • Following too closely
  • Failure to use caution in areas such as construction zones or school zones
  • Intoxication with alcohol, illicit drugs or prescription medication
  • Distracted driving, including texting and activities that do not involve devices such as eating or personal grooming

Defective Vehicles

Defective vehicles can cause accidents, but they can also cause injuries in accidents caused by negligent drivers or roadway defects. Our Meridian motor vehicle accident attorneys will thoroughly investigate your accident to determine if a defective vehicle played a role in causing your injuries.

We are dedicated to finding every avenue of compensation for you. If you were injured in a hit and run or the driver who caused your accident was uninsured or underinsured, and a defective vehicle contributed to the seriousness of your injuries we can pursue compensation from one or more of the following to ensure that you receive the full compensation that you need:

  • Auto maker
  • Parts maker
  • New or used car dealership
  • Rental company
  • Repair shop
