Complications in Failure to Yield Car Crashes in Deerfield Beach and FloridaOne of the difficulties with failure to yield crashes is that the wrong person may be blamed for the accident. In many of these cases, the person who is at fault is the vehicle that failed to yield while the person who is injured is in the vehicle that had right-of-way. Although it should be clear in these cases who the at fault driver is, all too often the insurance company or the attorney representing the motorist who failed to yield will try to devalue the claim, will try to get to the plaintiff to waive their rights, or will try to claim that the plaintiff actually caused the accident.
In these cases, it can be frustratingly difficult to prove that the motorist who was at fault did in fact fail to yield when they should have. Soon after this type of crash, do not be surprised if attorneys and insurance adjusters for the other party try to contact you and try to offer you a quick settlement or try to get you to sign documentation. Even if they seem very pleasant, keep in mind that they work for the at-fault driver and are not obligated to have your best interests at heart.
In these cases, insurance adjusters and attorneys can even end up making threats against you because in many failure to yield crashes you may have hit the other driver's car, even if you did so only because they failed to yield right-of-way. This is another common complication in the failure to yield accident. Often, the person who actually strikes another vehicle is the person who had right-of-way but couldn't stop in time because another vehicle failed to yield correctly. Just because you struck another car, however, does not mean that you were at fault. If someone else failed to yield correctly, then they are at fault. Of course, proving that is another matter entirely.
This is why in these cases it is important to consult with a personal injury attorney in your community immediately. An experienced attorney can ensure that your rights are protected and that your interests are represented.
