Nashville Rush Hour Accidents

Car Crash Lawyers Helping People Injured in Nashville, Tennessee

Most of us have experienced the nightmare that is rush hour traffic, whether it is in the morning on the way to work or on the way home after a long day at the office. Many drivers behave negligently during rush hour by speeding, weaving erratically in and out of traffic without using their turn signals, tailgating, and more. Despite all of the chaos of rush hour traffic, some drivers will even text or use their cell phone in some other way. These actions can easily result in a collision that not only backs up traffic, but also significant injuries for the victim(s) involved. If you or a loved one has been injured in a rush hour accident caused by another driver, you should contact the Nashville car accident attorneys of Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz. We may be able to assist you in recovering damages for your injuries and losses.

Obtaining Compensation for Rush Hour Accidents

After a collision that occurred during rush hour traffic, you must prove the negligence of the other driver in order to recover compensatory damages. To establish the negligence of the defendant, you must prove that the other driver owed you a duty of reasonable care, breached that duty of reasonable care, and caused you to suffer injuries as a result. Photographing your injuries and the scene of the accident can be beneficial in validating your claim, but it is highly recommended that you retain a knowledgeable attorney in the Nashville area to help you gather vital evidence and assert your rights to the fullest.

In Davidson County, let us say that you are driving in rush hour traffic, for example, on Interstate 24 during your morning commute to work. The driver behind you honks his horn in an attempt to make you go faster than the speed limit, but you do not. He tries tailgating you to make you go faster, but all of a sudden, traffic comes to an abrupt standstill. As a result of tailgating you, the driver rams into the back of your vehicle, causing you to sustain head trauma and whiplash.

Your injuries may require you to visit a hospital in the Nashville area like Nashville General Hospital, which is located at 1818 Albion Street, Nashville, Tennessee 37208. While it is important to seek medical attention after sustaining injuries in a motor vehicle collision, medical bills can become a financial burden quickly. Fortunately, you may be entitled to damages once liability has been established. You may be awarded compensatory damages, which can be split into two categories: economic damages and non-economic damages. Common forms of recovery include medical bills, property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life.
