Driving recklessly should be avoided no matter what the circumstances
may call for. And if someone’s reckless driving results in an accident and
corresponding injuries the consequences for such a driver may amount to a
prison sentence and/or a heavy fine. If you were injured as a result of
someone’s reckless driving you are entitled to compensation for your loss which
may include medical costs, property damage and time spent away from work. In
the text below we will look that the various facts surrounding accidents that
result from someone running a red light in based on the experiences of injury claims solicitors Accrington.
A Diver Ran a Red Light causing me to collide; am I
eligible for compensation?
No. Just because someone ran a red light does not mean that you will be
able to claim compensation in the event of an accident and personal injury. For
you to be able to claim compensation it has to be proved that your accident
occurred in direct relation to the act of running a red light. For example, in the
event of a driver running a red light but stopping before crossing the
intersection during which you came into a sudden stationary position despite
being signalled to go resulted in an accident it does not mean that you are eligible for
compensation. According to injury claims solicitors Accrington
and RTA experts you should observe your surroundings even when crossing an
intersection when green. However, if someone ran a red light and directly
resulted in your accident then you can claim for compensation.
