Car accidents can happen anywhere. But Cleveland has more than their fair share compared to Akron and Canton. Accidents can happen for many reasons. Human error - poor judgment, mechanical malfunction, distracted driving, inexperienced driving, reckless driving, poor visibility such as fog, windows that have not been properly cleared, ice or snow causing poor visibility, no heater or defroster in winter weather, and just acts of nature such as a deer crossing the road. And of course, there are more reasons. But we are concerned with the reasons that can be prevented.
What is neglect? Neglect is a failure to act with the prudence that a reasonable person would exercise under the same circumstances.
The driver not obeying the speed limit? The driver texting while driving? The manufacturer purposely not following proper procedures for a specific part such as brakes or tires. The driver driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol? The driver driving recklessly?
A reasonable person would not drive with ice and snow blocking their vision. A reasonable person would not drive in a reckless manner. A reasonable person would not drive drunk. These are just a few examples of neglect. No judge or court in Ohio would deem these situations as reasonable responsible driving. If you have been seriously injured due to someone else's wreck-less driving. You are entitled to full compensation. Compensation for property damage, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and possibly more.
