Road Debris Accidents

Road Debris Accidents

Accidents caused by trash on the road can be catastrophic. You might suddenly have to break to avoid the debris which can be dangerous especially if you are speeding. Injuries sustained in these aggressive accidents can be fatal. Each state has agencies responsibly for the proper maintenance of the roads. These organizations are often blamed for these types of accidents. If you become the victim of an accident caused by debris, contact 411-PAIN at 1.800.411.PAIN.

Vehicles braking all of a sudden because of debris on the road might cause the car behind crash into it. Debris on the road can also cause tire blow outs. When a tire blows out, especially in a speeding vehicle, rollover is inevitable.  The driver loses control causing the vehicle to leave the road and end up who knows where. It’s all about the laws of physics. Turning your steering wheel successfully will fix the problem.
Claims against government agencies can be complicated at times. Each state has specific rules to file a claim. The claim must be made during the specific time otherwise it won’t be valid. Some states require the claim filed within 30 days of the accident and some others might even allow you to file the claim after the period has lapsed as long as you show some prove for the delay.

Try to reduce your speed when driving close to debris. Besides having a longer reaction time you’ll also avoid unnecessary accidents. In South Florida debris can be overwhelming: fallen trees, corpses of wild animals, tourists’ trash, etc. Take control of your steering and don’t allow someone else’s rubbish ruin your day.
