Our accident attorneys work with victims throughout the United States that were involved in crashes and collisions at stop signs. These types of accident may result in head on collisions, side impact and rear end crashes. When a person neglects to come to a complete stop, runs a stop sign or makes an improper turn resulting in an accident, they should be held responsible for damages. If you hire one of our injury lawyers you can be relieved to know our attorneys only get paid if we win your case.
When a person is injured in a stop sign accident they have the right to seek legal representation. A person can seek legal counsel prior to speaking with the other driver’s insurance company. In fact, we always recommend contacting a lawyer prior to speaking with an insurance company. This is because anything you say to an insurance adjuster or representative can have a negative impact to a fair settlement. It is even more important in those states in which damages may be minimized based upon the proportion to the claimant’s attributed negligence. If an insurance company can get you to admit that you may have been partially at fault, it could have a negative consequence.
Accidents involving stop signs result in serious injury. There are thousands of accidents which a driver runs a stop sign at a high speed. The speed from one vehicle hitting into another may determine the extent of the injuries. There are essentially three different types of stop sign accidents:
- Rear End Collisions – A motorist is stopped at a stop sign and another driver is distracted and rams into the back of another vehicle. This type of accident typically results in serious whiplash.
- Head on Collisions – A motorist takes a left turn a driver coming from the other direction runs the stop sign and collides into the front side of the vehicle. This type of accident typically result in serious whiplash and in some cases lacerations from a broken windshield. If the other driver is approaching at a high speed, spinal cord injury and traumatic brain damage is sometimes common.
- Side Impact – If a person is proceeding straight ahead after stopping at a stop sign, and a car from the left or right runs the stop sign, they may collide into the side of the vehicle. Depending upon where the accident occurred (driver side or passenger side) it can be catastrophic.
When a person is involved in a stop sign accident they should immediately seek medical attention if they are hurt. In some case it may be a good idea even if you don’t believe you were hurt. Whiplash and other injuries may not be eminent right after an accident. It may take hours or even days before you feel an injury. It is also important that you contact the police, gather contact information of the other driver, take photographs, gather contact information of witnesses and write down how the accident occurred.
