Hialeah Intersection Accidents

Stop signs, traffic lights, and good road design all work together to help drivers drive through intersections. Unfortunately, all of these precautions aren't worth much if drivers are reckless or negligent. When drivers fail to yield right-of-way, fail to check blind spots, or run red lights or stop signs, the common result is serious car accidents or pedestrian accidents in Hialeah or your community. Unfortunately, intersection crashes often involve speeding as well as differently sized vehicles or vehicles and pedestrians – all of which can add up to serious or fatal injuries.

Intersection car accidents result in serious injuries such as brain trauma, fractures, paralysis, whiplash, and other serious injuries. Brain injury is one of the more serious and unfortunately common result of a car accident. In a collision, passengers often have no time to brace themselves for impact, and this can cause the brain to smash up against the surfaces of the car’s interior. While air bags can lessen the impact, in some cases airbags do not deflate or the passenger hits their head against a part of the vehicle that is not protected by airbags. Blunt force trauma to the head in this manner can result in bruising, swelling, or even bleeding in the brain. In extreme cases, the skull may become fractured or cracked, leading to even more serious injury.

If your intersection crash was caused by negligence or recklessness, you may qualify for compensation. Compensation can help you pay for:

• Lost wages
• Future lost income opportunities
• Medical and hospital bills
• Ongoing medical bills related to your injuries, including wheelchairs, medication, physical therapy, and other treatments
• Pain and suffering
• Incidental costs
• Property damage
• Car repair and car replacement costs
• Transportation while your car is replaced or repaired
