Liability For Chatsworth Car Accidents
Thousands of people are killed or seriously injured every year in car accidents. The vast majority of these collisions are preventable. In fact, it has been estimated that nearly 93% of all collisions involve some amount of human error. This could come in many forms including speeding, driver distraction and driver intoxication. Victims of car accidents tend to suffer very serious injuries including:
- Broken bones
- Head injuries
- Lacerations
- Spinal cord injuries
Many accidents that occur at intersections are due to drivers that make dangerous turns. Pursuant to California Vehicle Code 21801, the driver of any vehicle intending to turn left must first yield the right of way to any driver that is close enough to pose a hazard. The family of any person that died in a car accident may have legal recourse through a wrongful death claim.
