Fatal Vehicle Accidents in Pennsylvania
According to data collected from Pennsylvania roadways over the last year, rear-end crashes are the second most prevalent car accident. Thousands of these crashes involving several vehicles are reported in Pennsylvania yearly, so drivers must exercise extra caution. Unsafe driving is a common contributor to accidents. In these urban areas and beyond, the most common reason for rear-end collisions, for instance, is when drivers text or drive or engage in distracted driving. But despite the often-negligent causes of these accidents, there are occasions when it is less than easy to determine who is at fault in a rear-end collision.
One of the most important factors determining the severity of injuries sustained in a rear-end accident is the speed of the vehicle initiating the collision. Most rear-end crashes occur when one driver abruptly stops, causing the vehicle in front of them to careen into the traffic going from the other direction. If you were injured in a rear-end collision, the negligent driver who caused the wreck should cover your medical expenses and lost income.
Unfortunately, when a policyholder is seriously hurt or even rendered permanently disabled due to a vehicle accident, the insurance company may attempt to avoid paying for the policyholder’s long-term care or lost income and future earning potential despite their lack of fault in contributing to the wreck.
