Rear-End Collisions and Liability

Stopped traffic—either for an accident, a traffic light, or congestion during your commute—can place you at risk for a rear-end collision. If you noticed another driver approaching at a high rate of speed in your rearview mirror, chances are you had no place to go to avoid the collision.

It is also possible your rear-end collision happened so fast, you did not anticipate the impact. Understanding what caused a driver to not notice the stopped traffic in time to stop can help in determining liability for your injuries.

Investigating What Went Wrong and Who May Be at Fault

A Miami rear-end collisions lawyer from Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers may be able to investigate your accident by reviewing police reports, interviewing witnesses, and examining photographs of the accident scene.

According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), traffic accidents involve a variety of driver behaviors and actions. The following are just a few examples of how a rear-end collision can occur due to driver negligence:

Distracted Driving

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists the following three types of driver distraction:

• Visual: anything that takes a driver’s eyes from the road
• Manual: anything that takes a driver’s hands from the wheel
• Cognitive: anything that takes a driver’s mind off driving

According to accident data from the FLHMSV, more than 3,000 incapacitating injuries and 200 fatalities occurred in Florida due to driver distraction in 2018 alone.

If the driver responsible for your rear-end collision engaged in distracted behavior before the accident, they may be liable for your damages.

Speeding and Aggressive Behavior

The FLHMSV 2018 data also shows us that speeding and aggressive behavior caused more than 1,200 serious injuries and resulted in more than 400 fatalities that year.

According to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, speeding and purposely tailgating are two forms of aggressive driving. These dangerous driver actions can lead to a rear-end collision.

Our team may be able to determine exactly what happened and who is liable for your injuries. In some cases, responsibility may point to faulty brakes or other mechanical errors. No matter what caused a driver to rear-end your vehicle, we will fight for compensation for your medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

When a Rear-End Collision Results in the Death of a Close Loved One

An especially violent rear-end collision—like one caused by a semi-truck—may result in the death of a close loved one. If you lost someone you love due to reckless actions or to a mechanical failure, or both, we may be able to help you with a wrongful death case.

In a wrongful death claim or lawsuit, your relationship to the decedent is an important qualifier for pursuing compensation. These following types of relationships are standard in such cases:

• Surviving spouse
• Parents
• Children

Florida Statute § 768.19 allows for legal action when a death results from the negligent actions of another person. To learn if the death of your close loved may entitle you to pursue compensation and justice, call Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers now for a free case evaluation: (305) 944-2035.
