Bronx Car Accident Lawyers News Update- According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), one-third of traffic accidents in the United States involve more than two vehicles. Additionally, the NHTSA’s most recent evaluation of traffic fatalities indicates a 16% increase in deaths in car accidents involving multiple cars in 2021 compared to 2020. In this article, New York City personal injury attorneys Glenn and Robin Herman discuss common causes of multi-car accidents.
Multi-car pileup accidents are often caused by one or more of the following factors: poor weather conditions, poor visibility, driver fatigue, tailgating, and other forms of reckless driving.
Poor Weather Conditions In NYC
One of the most common causes of multi-car pile-ups is bad weather. Rain, snow, sleet, and hail can all create dangerous driving conditions, reducing visibility and making it more likely that a driver will skid or lose control of their vehicle. In severe weather conditions, drivers may take excessive risks to make up time, leading to dangerous maneuvers like speeding, tailgating, and weaving between lanes.
Low Visibility Driving Conditions In New York City
Another common cause of multi-car pile ups is poor visibility. If a driver cannot see the road ahead of them clearly, they may not be able to react quickly enough when conditions suddenly become dangerous, leading to a collision with cars in front of them. Sometimes, poor visibility is caused by weather conditions like fog or heavy rain. Other times, it can be caused by something as simple as headlights that are not properly adjusted or the sun glaring off of a car in front of you.
Driver Fatigue While Driving In The Big Apple
Driver fatigue can also contribute to multi-car pile ups. When drivers feel tired and stressed, they often take more risks behind the wheel, such as speeding or changing lanes without checking their blind spot. If a driver falls asleep at the wheel, they may not be able to stop quickly enough if conditions become dangerous, or they may drift into another lane and collide with oncoming traffic.
Tailgating
Tailgating refers to the act of one car driving dangerously close to the car in front of them. Though any form of reckless or aggressive driving can result in an accident involving multiple cars, tailgating presents a heightened risk. This is especially true of accidents on the highway, where drivers often tailgate each other at high speeds. When multiple cars drive too close to each other without sufficient stopping distance, there is a greater chance of a chain reaction if one of the cars needs to suddenly brake or swerve, resulting in a multi-car accident.
Who Is At Fault in New York State Traffic Accidents Involving Multiple Cars?
When a traffic accident involves multiple cars, determining who is at fault can be a complicated process. There are typically several factors that must be considered, including the actions of each driver leading up to the crash and the severity of
