Other Factors Involved In Speeding-Related Crashes

Research shows that increased speed correlates to a higher likelihood of severe injury in the event of an accident. While car travel initially decreased at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, recent data shows that average driving speeds increased by as much as 65% during the same period in some metro areas. Rochester’s roads followed this trend, and since the pandemic began, several dozen pedestrian-involved car accidents resulted in injury wherein speeding was a factor.

Often, speeding is just one of several factors responsible for a collision. Of the many car accidents that result in injury, being distracted, failing to obey traffic signals and signs, and making unsafe lane changes are just some examples of other elements that are often partly to blame. Our legal team will help you determine the cause of the accident that caused your injury and decide the best course of action for your case.

After The Accident

If you have been injured in a speeding accident, it is important for you to know what services, in addition to legal assistance, are available to you. Before you have sought guidance from our Rochester car accidents caused by speeding attorneys, there are several steps you will need to take, including:

1. Calling 911: While the injuries a person sustains from a speeding collision are often treatable, they can also be severe, and it is important that you seek medical attention as soon as possible. Hospitals in Rochester, New York, include Rochester General Hospital, Strong Memorial Hospital of the University of Rochester, and Highland Hospital.
2. Calling the Police: If you have been in a car accident, the police might arrive at the scene before you have a chance to call them unless the collision occurred on private property. If for some reason they do not, it is essential that you call them right away to report the accident. This step is important because the police report will contain important details about the accident that could help you win your case.
3. Filing a Report with the Department of Motor Vehicles: If you were involved in a car accident that resulted in injury or over $1,000 worth of damage, you should file an accident report with New York State’s Department of Motor Vehicles within thirty calendar days of the accident. If you are unable to do so, you can submit written proof that demonstrates why you are justified in filing late.

No one plans on sustaining an injury from a car crash, and figuring out what to do next can be confusing. Our experienced Rochester car accidents caused by speeding attorneys at the Dietrich Law Firm P.C. are equipped to handle your case and fight to get you the justice you deserve.
