New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that, should a jury find that you are responsible for an accident the amount of damages you will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. This rule does not apply to owners of vehicles that are rented or leased out to minors.

Duty of Care

In a case of negligence the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant owed the duty of care towards them. This duty is owed by everyone, but people who operate a vehicle owe an even greater duty to other drivers in their field. This includes not causing accidents in motor vehicles.

Courtrooms compare an individual's actions with what a normal person would do under similar circumstances to determine what constitutes a reasonable standard of care. Expert witnesses are often required in cases of medical malpractice. Experts with a superior understanding of particular fields may be held to a greater standard of treatment.

A breach of a person's duty of care can cause harm to a victim, or their property. The victim must prove that the defendant acted in breach of their duty and caused the harm or damage that they suffered. Causation is an important part of any negligence claim. It involves proving both the primary and secondary causes of the damage and injury.

For instance, if a driver runs a red light there is a good chance that they'll be struck by a car. If their vehicle is damaged, they'll have to pay for the repairs. The cause of an accident could be a fracture in the brick that leads to an infection.

Breach of Duty

A breach of duty by a defendant is the second element of negligence that needs to be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury lawsuit. A breach of duty is when the actions taken by the at-fault person are insufficient to what a normal person would do under similar circumstances.

A doctor, for example, has a number of professional obligations to his patients, which stem from the law of the state and licensing authorities. Motorists have a duty of care to other drivers and pedestrians on the road to drive in a safe manner and adhere to traffic laws. If a motorist violates this obligation of care and results in an accident, the driver is responsible for the injuries suffered by the victim.

Lawyers can use the "reasonable people" standard to show that there is a duty of caution and then prove that the defendant did not adhere to this standard in his conduct. The jury will decide if the defendant complied with or did not meet the standard.

The plaintiff must also demonstrate that the breach of duty by the defendant was the primary cause of the plaintiff's injuries. This is sometimes more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty or breach. For example the defendant could have crossed a red line, however, the act was not the sole cause of the crash. Because of this, the causation issue is often contested by the defendants in cases of crash.

Causation

In motor vehicle accidents vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the defendant's breach of duty and their injuries. For example, if the plaintiff suffered a neck injury from an accident that involved rear-ends and their lawyer would argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are needed to produce the collision, such as being in a stationary vehicle, are not culpable and do not affect the jury's decision of liability.

For psychological injuries However, the connection between a negligent act and the affected plaintiff's symptoms can be more difficult to establish. It may be the case that the plaintiff has a turbulent past, a poor relationship with their parents, or has used alcohol or drugs.

If you've been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident law firms vehicle accident, it is important to speak with a seasoned attorney.

Damages

In motor vehicle litigation, a person can get both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages covers the costs of monetary value that can easily be summed up and then calculated into an overall amount, including medical treatment and lost wages, repairs to property, and even future financial loss, like a diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, such as suffering and pain, and loss of enjoyment cannot be reduced to money. The damages must be proven through extensive evidence such as depositions from family members and friends of the plaintiff medical records, as well as other expert witness testimony.

In the event of multiple defendants, courts will typically use the comparative fault rule to determine the amount of total damages to be divided between them. The jury must determine the amount of fault each defendant incurred in the incident and then divide the total damages award by that percentage of fault. New York law however, does not allow this. 1602 disqualifies vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in cases where injuries are sustained by drivers of cars or trucks. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissiveness applies is not straightforward, and typically only a clear showing that the owner has explicitly was not granted permission to operate the vehicle will be able to overcome it.
