High-Speed Collisions in New York
Your life is essentially in another person’s hands every time you share the road with a driver. Speeding is a common factor in serious car accidents, not just in New York but across the country. Speeding contributes to thousands of deaths each year, contributing to nearly one-third of reported traffic fatalities in the past 20 years. When drivers exceed the speed limit, they are more likely to lose control of their vehicles, and the force of impact will almost always cause much more severe injuries. Speed limits are in place to keep the road safe for everyone. Unfortunately, when drivers fail to obey them, they are useless. You must be ready to pursue a strong claim for compensation by working closely with a trained lawyer during this time.
