Accidents Caused By Improper Lane Changes

Even if you are extremely careful on the road, other drivers may place you in danger by failing to consider road safety

Negligence Is a Common Cause of Improper Lane Change Accidents

Accidents do not happen without an initial cause. While many accidents may occur without a malicious intent to harm anyone, this point is not a valid reason to excuse liability.

Improper lane change accidents may be caused by negligent actions such as:

  • A lack of checking blind spots before performing a lаnе change
  • Changing lanes where it is not permitted
  • Failure to signal a lane change
  • Not checking to make sure a lane is clear before entering it
  • Drivеr distraction as a result of such events as cell рhоnе uѕе, reading, or eating
  • Operating a motor vеhiсlе while under thе influеnсе оf drugѕ оr аlсоhоl

In unsafe lane change scenarios, violation of safety measures can result in various types of crashes that may include:

  • Vehicle rollover
  • Side-swept collisions
  • Head-on collisions
  • Rear-end collisions
  • Off-road accidents

Each driver has a duty to observe proper driving lanes to comply with customs and promote road safety. The failure to do so can be a breach of duty, and a victim may be able to hold the driver liable for resultant damages.

If you are a victim of such an accident, Morelli Law Firm may be able to assist you.

Car Accident Injuries

Car accidents can cause serious physical and mental injuries. These injuries may include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Deep scrapes and cuts
  • Broken ribs and other types of bone injuries
  • Ligament, muscle, and tendon injuries
  • Permanent damage, such as long-term disability
  • Internal organ damage or serious bleeding
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Whiplash
  • And more

If you were hurt in a car accident, make sure to see a medical provider for an evaluation as soon as possible after your accident.

There are two important reasons for this. First, you may have subtle or delayed injury symptoms that you do not recognize, and even your minor injuries may require treatment to heal. A doctor can diagnose and start treating your accident-related injuries.

Second, your medical record may serve as evidence in your case that the accident caused your injuries and not something else.

Fatal Car Accidents

In the worst-case scenario, car accidents can be fatal. If you have lost a loved one in a car accident caused by another party’s negligence, Morelli Law Firm may be able to help you file a wrongful death lawsuit. This may allow you to recover wrongful death damages such as funeral and burial costs, pre-death medical expenses, and more.

To learn more about the requirements for filing a wrongful death lawsuit in New York, call Morelli Law Firm today.

Recoverable Damages in a Car Accident Case

In a personal injury claim or lawsuit for car accident injuries, the recoverable damages may include:

  • Post-accident emergency medical care
  • Current and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages for the time you were unable to work during your recovery
  • Reduced earning capability
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • And more

Morelli Law Firm can explore your damages and collect proof of their value when we represent you.

Call Morelli Law Firm Today

As a victim, you may have the right to pursue financial recovery for damages suffered in a motor vehicle accident. A New York accident caused by improper lane changes lawyer from Morelli Law Firm may be able to handle this process on your behalf while you concentrate on your recovery.

  • Two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit, per NY Estates, Powers & Trusts (EPT) § 5-4.1

Failure to take legal action by the appropriate deadline could result in the dismissal of your lawsuit.

For a free consultation with a member of our team—including details on what specific deadlines pertain to your case—call Morelli Law Firm at (212) 751-9800 today.
