Automobile accidents are the most common type of vehicle accident and are a leading cause of personal injury and preventable death. Thousands die or are injured in car accidents every year and these road traffic accidents are cause for both civil and criminal liability. Drivers, passengers, and pedestrians may all be entitled to compensation for damages, injuries, and pain and suffering in road accidents caused by another's negligence. Claims against uninsured drivers, for medical expenses, serious injuries, defective vehicles, and for loss of income all may be grounds for a car accident lawsuit, whether the accident was a head-on collision, side collision, rear end collision, or a roll over.
