Recreational Vehicle (RV) Accidents In Buffalo, New York

Jed Dietrich, Esq. is an Elite and Highly Experienced Personal Injury Attorney in Buffalo, New York Representing Recreational Vehicle Accident Victims.

According to the Recreational Vehicle (RV) Industry Association’s 2018 Annual Report, RV sales have increased by 36% from 2014 to 2018. This increase in popularity can be largely attributed to the baby boomer generation entering retirement age. In 2011, baby boomers started turning 65, and from now until 2030, that number will swell by 10,000 each day. The percentage of our population with excess leisure time is growing and will continue to grow over the next decade. Thus, it can be expected that the popularity of RVs will continue to rise.

While RVs provide a fun and convenient way to travel, they pose a high risk of accidents, and those accidents can be much more devastating than regular motor vehicle accidents. In 2012, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration reported that 75,000 people sustained injuries due to an RV accident.

RV accidents are more dangerous than regular motor vehicle accidents because of the increased likelihood of them occurring, and the severity of the injuries they can cause.

RV accidents are more likely to occur because of:

1. Blind spots;
2. Driver fatigue;
3. Equipment failure;
4. Imbalanced load or overloading;
5. Improper maintenance or lack of maintenance;
6. Improper turns;
7. Increased stopping distance;
8. Inexperienced drivers;
9. Lack of maneuverability;
10. Overcorrecting;
11. Rollovers;
12. Runaway trailers;
13. Size and/or weight of the vehicle; and
14. Tire blowout due to wear and tear or under-inflation.

RV accidents usually result in more severe injuries because of:

1. The lack of seatbelts used by, or available to, all passengers in the vehicle;
2. The absence of airbags in many RVs; and
3. The increased force of the collision due to the size and weight of the RV.

When it comes to RV accidents, insurance can become a complex issue. In New York State, a self-propelled RV must be insured. Towed RVs, however, are usually covered by the regular automobile insurance of the driver. They can only be covered, however, if the insured listed the trailer on their declarations page. Some types of automobile insurance may not cover towed RVs, and some may partially cover it, but not in full. Many RV owners mistakenly believe that their RV is insured by their regular automobile insurance or are mistaken as to the extent of that coverage. A further complication occurs when the insurance for the RV has expired, unbeknownst to the owner.
