What Is a motor vehicle accident attorneys Vehicle Case?

A motor vehicle case is a personal injury lawsuit involving a motor vehicle accident. While the majority of cases are governed by common law but there are some legal issues which are unique to this specific area.

Under New York law, owners of vehicles are liable for accidents that occur while their vehicles are operating without their permission, either express or implied. Our legal team tackles these cases as a contingency basis.

Eyewitness Testimony

Eyewitness testimony is a valuable addition to other evidence in relation to motor vehicle accidents. This kind of evidence can be used to identify the perpetrators of crimes and provide details about how the incident occurred. However, there is a wide amount of evidence that suggests eyewitness identifications can be highly inaccurate.

Witnesses, for instance, are more likely to make mistakes in recalling the color of an object or its shape. Furthermore perceptual distortions like fading memories can alter a witness's recall of a specific event.

Witness memory can also be altered when a witness receives important questions or information. For instance, in one experiment found that telling participants to estimate how fast a car was traveling affected their responses. Other factors that impact the accuracy of eyewitness testimony include age and attention level, as well as skill and stress, health issues and prejudice.

While many experts will insist on the reliability of eyewitness testimony however it is crucial to educate jurors and law enforcement agencies members on the possibility of mistakes. In some instances, eyewitness testimony that was inaccurate has led to incorrect convictions, or even murder. In the case of 2018, for instance, the Innocence Project was able to show that the fingerprints of a cup used by an eyewitness to identify the suspect in a burglary were not those of Royal Clark's.

Vehicle Examination

As a rule, vehicle inspections are required every year. Certain vehicles may need to be regularly inspected like those being sold privately or those that have an expiring inspection sticker. It is also mandatory for certain situations, like when a resident of New York moves and needs to change their address, that their vehicle is inspected prior to when the new stickers can be issued.

When an inspector conducts an inspection, they begin by confirming a few details such as the car's make and model as well as the date of registration as well as the odometer reading and the list goes on. The inspectors then start to look at the vehicle itself, starting with the most obvious parts like mirrors, the windshields, the lights, and the horn. There are a number of checklists to ensure that an exhaustive inspection is done, including checking for things like suspension components or rust.

Drivers must be aware and be aware of other motorists, pedestrians and potential hazards. Failure to do this could be considered negligence. It is also a driver's responsibility to keep control of their vehicle at all the time. A vehicle that is defective can lead to a loss of control of the vehicle, which could cause serious injuries. The manufacturer of a vehicle may be held responsible for the accident in the event that it was caused by an auto defect or a component part.

Components or Parts that are defective

For a vehicle's operation to run correctly, thousands of tiny electrical and mechanical components must work together. If one of these parts is damaged, the result can be catastrophic. Often, these accidents are the result of manufacturing defects or other issues in the construction or design of a particular component. If a component that is defective in a car is the cause of an accident, then the person accountable for the incident could be liable for a reimbursement to victims for injuries.

Many people think that all auto accidents occur due to human error. While nearly 94 percent of car accidents are caused by driver errors but there are other causes which can cause a crash including road conditions and defective auto parts.

Defective car parts include brakes, airbags, seatbelts, tires and any other component which may fail to function in the way it was designed and result in an accident. These defects could be the result of parts purchased from an aftermarket store that were not made with the same care as the original components of a car. Other times, the defect may be present in the initial design of a particular part.

Manufacturers are required by law to make vehicles that meet the minimum safety standards. If the vehicle or its components were not constructed or designed to these specifications the manufacturer could be held responsible in a lawsuit involving product liability for any injuries that may occur as a result of an accident that was caused by the defective part.

Insurance Coverage

Most states use the tort liability system which obliges drivers to carry insurance in the event their actions or negligence causes injury to another. Liability coverage includes bodily injury liability as well as property damage liability.

The bodily injury liability covers your medical expenses and those of others injured by your car in an accident, up to the limit of your policy. Typically there is a separate limit per person injured and a single limit for the total amount of property damage. Certain insurance companies offer policies with higher limits on these kinds of damages.

Property damage insurance will repair or replace your vehicle if it is damaged by an event other than collision with another car or other object, like theft, fire, windstorm and the impact of the deer. It can also protect your vehicle from damage caused by driving over potholes. This type of insurance is required in New York, among other states.

In many states there are many states where uninsured or underinsured motorist insurance (UM/UIM) is required. However, some states only require it if the driver at fault is not insured or has no insurance. This insurance covers you or your passengers for medical and property losses when the at-fault driver does not have insurance, is underinsured or is involved in a hit-and run crash.
