Nashville Road Rage Accidents

Car Wreck Attorneys Representing People Injured in the Nashville Area

Cutting off drivers, making inappropriate hand gestures, and yelling verbal insults are all examples of road rage – a leading cause of motor vehicle collisions in the United States. Most of us have seen that one driver yelling inside his or her car until they are red in the face as they incessantly honk their horn. While to some it may seem harmless and deemed as a valid way of releasing aggression, the opposite is true when it comes to the operation of a car. Collisions caused by road rage can quickly escalate into a situation where threats are being made, and threats, in many instances involving road rage, turn into acts of violence. If you or a loved one has been injured in a road rage accident, you should contact the Nashville car accident lawyers at Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz – the largest Tennessee-based personal injury law firm. Our firm, consisting of more than 30 attorneys and over 120 support staff members, has been serving car crash victims in Tennessee and across the South for more than 30 years.

Recovering Damages for Road Rage Accidents

Being injured in a road rage collision in Davidson County can result in you sustaining common injuries that people usually suffer in car accidents, such as spinal cord injuries, lacerations, concussions, skull fractures, broken bones, head trauma, and more. These injuries can lead to other conditions. For instance, head trauma can cause hearing loss, impaired vision, and chronic migraines, and spinal cord injuries can possibly result in paralysis, depending on the damage done to the spinal cord. These injuries and the conditions they can cause you can alter your life dramatically, so it is important to hire a skilled car accident lawyer in the Nashville area to fight for the compensation you deserve and need.

Establishing the negligence of the other driver is imperative when it comes to recovering damages in Tennessee after an accident caused by road rage. To establish negligence, you must show that there was a duty of reasonable care owed to you by the other driver and prove that the defendant breached that duty, which caused you to suffer injuries. For example, if the collision you were involved in happened near the Country Music Hall of Fame, located at 222 5th Avenue South, Nashville, Tennessee 37203, gathering eyewitness testimony could help validate your claim in addition to photographing the scene of the accident and your injuries.

Once liability has been established, the focus can shift to damages. Your injuries and losses stemming from the accident may entitle you to compensatory damages, which can be broken down into economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages are awarded for monetary losses, such as past and future medical bills, lost earning capacity, and lost wages. Non-economic damages are awarded for abstract losses, including disfigurement, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium.
