Motor Vehicle Litigation

If the liability is challenged and the liability is disputed, it is necessary to start a lawsuit. The defendant then has the chance to respond to the complaint.

New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that, should a jury find you to be at fault for an accident and you are found to be at fault, your damages will be reduced according to your percentage of blame. This rule is not applicable to owners of vehicles rented out or leased to minors.

Duty of Care

In a lawsuit for negligence the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant owed them a duty to exercise reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, but individuals who get behind the steering wheel of a motor vehicle have a higher obligation to the other drivers in their zone of activity. This includes ensuring that they do not cause motor vehicle accidents.

Courtrooms assess an individual's actions to what a typical person would do under the same circumstances to determine reasonable standards of care. In the case of medical malpractice experts are often required. Experts with a superior understanding of specific fields could be held to a higher standard of care.

When a person breaches their duty of care, it may cause injury to the victim or their property. The victim has to prove that the defendant acted in breach of their duty of care and caused the injury or damage they sustained. Causation is an important part of any negligence claim. It involves proving both the proximate and actual causes of the damage and injury.

If someone runs an stop sign then they are more likely to be hit by a car. If their car is damaged they'll be accountable for repairs. But the reason for the crash could be a cut or bricks, which later turn into a dangerous infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty committed by an individual defendant. The breach of duty must be proved in order to be awarded compensation for personal injury claims. A breach of duty is when the actions of the at-fault party do not match what an ordinary person would do in similar circumstances.

For instance, a physician has a variety of professional obligations to his patients, arising from state law and licensing boards. Motorists are required to show care to other drivers and pedestrians on the road to drive safely and observe traffic laws. If a driver fails to comply with this duty of care and causes an accident, he is liable for the injury suffered by the victim.

Lawyers can use the "reasonable persons" standard to establish that there is a duty of caution and then show that the defendant did not meet the standard in his actions. It is a matter of fact that the jury has to decide whether the defendant complied with the standard or not.

The plaintiff must also demonstrate that the defendant's breach was the sole cause of the plaintiff's injuries. This is sometimes more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. For instance it is possible that a defendant crossed a red line, but the action was not the primary reason for your bicycle crash. This is why causation is frequently disputed by the defendants in case of a crash.

Causation

In motor vehicle-related cases, the plaintiff must establish that there is a causal connection between the breach by the defendant and their injuries. For instance, if the plaintiff sustained an injury to his neck in a rear-end collision and their lawyer could argue that the collision caused the injury. Other elements that are required in causing the collision such as being in a stationary vehicle are not considered to be culpable and therefore do not affect the jury's decision of the liability.

It can be difficult to prove a causal link between an act of negligence and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The fact that the plaintiff suffered from a a troubled childhood, poor relationship with their parents, experimented with drugs and alcohol or experienced previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological issues suffers from following an accident, but courts typically consider these factors as part of the context from which the plaintiff's accident arose rather than an independent reason for the injuries.

Damages

The damages plaintiffs can seek in a motor vehicle lawsuit include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages is all costs that can be easily added together and calculated as a total, for example, medical expenses as well as lost wages, repairs to property, and even the possibility of future financial losses, such as a diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, like pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life are not able to be reduced to money. These damages must be proved with a large amount of evidence, such as depositions of family members and friends of the plaintiff medical records, depositions, or other expert witness testimony.

In cases that involve multiple defendants, Courts will often use rules of comparative negligence to determine the proportion of damages awarded should be split between them. The jury will determine the percentage of fault each defendant is responsible for the accident and then divide the total amount of damages awarded by that percentage. However, New York law 1602 excludes vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in cases where injuries are sustained by drivers of cars or trucks. The process to determine if the presumption is permissive or not is complicated. In general the only way to prove that the owner was not able to grant permission to the driver to operate the vehicle will be able to overcome the presumption.
