Only vehicles without a roof and convertibles have no blind spots. Every other type of vehicle on the road has blind spots, which are basically the no zones that the driver cannot easily see when facing forward. On most vehicles, blind spots occur along the sides of the vehicle and behind the vehicle. On buses, SUVs, vans, commercial trucks, and other large vehicles, the blind spots may be much larger. It is expected that motorists are careful when adjusting their mirrors and check their blind spots manually when changing lanes or performing other maneuvers that can cause a traffic crash in Fort Lauderdale or their community.
Unfortunately, as the attorneys at Flaxman Law Group have seen again and again, some drivers are extremely negligent when it comes to checking blind spots and driving responsibly. Distracted drivers, drunk drivers, and other types of reckless drivers cause blind spot accidents each day. If you have been injured in this type of car accident or any traffic collision, please feel free to contact Flaxman Law Group at any time to discuss your situation and your options for compensation. Your initial consultation is absolutely free and comes with no pressure and no obligation, so you risk nothing getting the facts that could help your family get fair compensation.
Do I Have A Claim?Many accidents caused by blind spots are in fact caused by negligence and this means that those were injured in these types of accidents can pursue a claim. Under Florida law, if a wrongful act or someone's reckless action has caused an accident that has caused your injuries, you may have a legal claim. If your injuries have resulted in medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other expenses and damages, you may be able to seek a legal claim in order to recover for these expenses and losses.
The challenge is that it can often be difficult to prove that a driver was negligent or failed to check their blind spots. Often, an at-fault driver will vigorously deny that they did anything wrong. In these cases, an experienced personal injury attorney in Fort Lauderdale or your community can gather expert witnesses, interview witnesses at the scene, and conduct a thorough investigation in order to prove your claim.
