    How Common Are Car Accidents in the Bay Area?

    Between 2010 and 2016, car accident injury accidents in the Bay Area increased by 25 percent while fatal collisions increased by 43 percent. In 2016, 2,089 people were injured in accidents and 455 were killed in the region. The California Office of Traffic Safety reports that 3,623 people were killed in traffic accidents in the state in 2016, which was a 7 percent increase over 2015.

    Types of Injuries That May be Sustained in Car Accidents

    Many different types of injuries may be sustained in car accidents. The types of injuries that might be suffered will depend on factors such as the relative speed and size of the vehicles that are involved, whether people were wearing seatbelts, where the impact happened on the car and where people were located inside of the vehicles. Some common types of injuries that happen in car accidents include the following:

    • Traumatic brain injuries
    • Whiplash
    • Facial injuries
    • Lacerations and contusions
    • Fractures of the legs and arms
    • Pelvic injuries
    • Spinal cord injuries
    • Rib fractures
    • Internal injuries

    In serious accidents, people may sustain multiple injuries, and some people may die as a result. Some seriously injured people may be permanently disabled and require a lifetime of ongoing care after their accidents.

    Why Are Car Accidents So Common in the Bay Area?

    Car accidents in the Bay Area may be caused by a number of different factors. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s National Crash Causation Survey, 94 percent of traffic accidents are caused by driver errors, meaning that the vast majority of accidents are preventable. Of the remaining accidents, 2 percent are attributable to environmental causes, and 2 percent are attributable to vehicle factors. Among the driver factors, the NHTSA identified the following common accident causes:

    • Driver inattention
    • Distracted driving
    • Driving too fast for conditions
    • Speeding
    • Impaired driving
    • Drowsy driving
    • Illegal maneuvers

    Common environmental causes of accidents may include weather-related conditions such as fog and rain, debris in the roads, poorly designed roads and defects in the roads. Vehicles that are poorly maintained or that have defects also may contribute to accidents.

    When should you call a car accident lawyer in the Bay Area?

    People who are injured in car accidents in California must file personal injury lawsuits no later than two years after they were injured. However, it is vital for you to contact a car accident lawyer in the Bay Area as soon after your accident as possible. When you get help from one of our San Jose personal injury attorneys soon after your accident, we may be able to preserve evidence that may otherwise be lost as time passes. Getting help from a personal injury attorney early may help us to build the strongest case possible for you so that you may be likelier to prevail.

    Why Should You Call our Bay Area Car Accident Lawyers?

    Some people attempt to handle their car accident claims without getting legal help. While this may be fine if there was only property damage, getting help from an experienced personal injury lawyer is crucial if you have been injured in an accident. Personal injury law is complex, and insurance companies often fight aggressively against injury claims in an effort to try to reduce their losses. Our experienced lawyers can handle the negotiations with the insurance company for you and complete comprehensive investigations so that we can clearly show the liability of the other driver to the insurance company. This may help you to recover much more compensation than you might otherwise receive.
