Attending a Festival
Events such as fairs and the Grilled Cheese Festival can be fun for the entire family. They often have a large attendance and are generally well-run and safe. However, a personal injury can occur anywhere. When it does, it leaves the injured person with medical bills, lost wages and other costs caused by a negligent person or entity.
Driving To and From an Event
Some of the ways in which motorists are negligent and can cause a traffic accident include:
- Drunk driving: This is a major cause of all varieties of traffic accidents. An inebriated driver has poor judgment, reflexes, coordination, and vision. Although those who are drinking should have a designated driver or call a rideshare to get home, many don’t. Not realizing they are too drunk to drive, they get behind the wheel of a car.
- Texting or talking on a cell phone: Although handling a cell phone while driving is illegal in California, many motorists still do it. Even using a cell phone hands-free has been shown to be too much of a distraction that can lead to a collision.
- Drugged driving: Illegal drugs and certain ones that are over-the-counter or prescription can impair a motorist’s ability to drive.
- Fatigued driving: Those who have stayed up late the night before or do shift work can be too tired to drive. This can result in the driver falling asleep or becoming foggy headed, which interferes with safety.
Obtaining Compensation After an Accident
A personal injury lawyer with experience in car accidents can review your case and explain your available options in obtaining fair compensation for your injuries. This may involve negotiating for you with the insurance company. If this proves to be unsatisfactory, the lawyer can build a case for fair compensation to present in civil court.
