A recent study shows that three people die in fatal car accidents daily within North Carolina. While the study seems dismal, it gives light to these issues and urges drivers to drive more cautiously.
Charlotte,, USA - - October 10, 2014 —
A recent study on motor vehicle accidents in North Carolina has been released and the results were not entirely encouraging. To put it briefly, North Carolina has a lot of room for improvement when it comes to decreasing the number of car, truck, motorcycle and pedestrian accidents. Although the overall number of traffic deaths has fallen in North Carolina over the past four years, North Carolina is the third most dangerous state in the nation in terms of the number of fatalities on non-interstate highways. None of the Charlotte-area counties ranked in the top five in the state in any of the safety categories studied. And, on average, three peopled lose their lives in traffic accidents every single day in North Carolina.
Rarely do motor vehicle accidents just happen — usually someone has made a mistake that precipitates a crash. The results of this study may help serve as a wakeup call for North Carolina drivers to get off their cell phones, dial back their speeds and keep a watchful eye on the road. Yet, change doesn’t happen overnight, and even if safety on North Carolina roads improves, there will always be drivers who make slip ups. That is where the lawyers of DeVore, Acton & Stafford, P.A. come in.
When a driver causes an accident, that driver — or, in many cases, his or her insurer — can be held financially responsible for resulting damages. In a case involving serious injury, compensation might account for things like medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages. In a wrongful death case, similar types of compensation are available, but there are some notable differences; for instance, compensation may be available for reasonable funeral expenses. Because insurers typically wish to pay out as little as possible after an accident, it is important to have experienced legal representation to ensure a full, fair recovery.
