Common Causes of San Bernardino Car Accidents
Car accidents in the San Bernardino area happen for various reasons. Common causes include:
- Drunk driving: People who drink and drive can cause danger to anyone around them. The National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that alcohol impacts driving ability by reducing brain function. It can impair thinking, reasoning, and muscle coordination. Therefore, drinking and driving could lead an impaired driver to cause an accident.
- Distracted driving: Texting and driving has caused many accidents in recent years. When a driver takes their hands off the wheel or their eyes off the road to send or read a text, they could cause an accident in that short time. Other distractions include eating, tending to children, and changing the radio station.
- Reckless driving: When a driver engages in dangerous behavior, such as speeding or tailgating, they can cause accidents. Other reckless driving behaviors include weaving in and out of traffic and drag racing.
- Poor road conditions: When government municipalities don’t maintain their roads, accidents can happen. Examples of poor road conditions include uneven lanes or deep potholes. If your accident occurs because of poor road conditions, we can help you identify the responsible party.
If someone caused your accident because of any of these or other negligent actions, you could file a claim against them.
