Car accidents, by their nature, occur without warning, and it can sometimes be difficult to recollect all relevant details. Nevertheless, if the injury claim is to succeed, all material details need to be recorded accurately and all available evidence must be collected and preserved. Your solicitor will require as much information as possible in order to be able to assess the circumstances of the accident, determine if a claim will succeed and evaluate the likely compensation award for pain & suffering and reimbursement of expenses and other losses.
Speeding is often pointed to as the single most common cause of road accidents in South Australia and is estimated to cause most of the deaths on Adelaide’s roads each year together with hundreds of non fatal serious injuries. In addition to speeding, despite the on-going campaigns against drunk driving, the proportion of alcohol-related accidents is on the rise, contributing to approximately fifteen percent of car accidents. Added together, all these factors result in an estimated 90 percent of accidents being due to driver error, with careless and reckless behaviour, driving above the speed limit or while under the influence of alcohol or driving while fatigued being major contributors. A large number of accidents after midnight are put down to fatigue.
