Types of Auto Accidents

- Motorcycle accidents
- Commercial truck accidents
- Boating accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Bus accidents
If you are injured because of a motor vehicle accident, please call (206) 622-1100 today to speak with an experienced Seattle auto accident attorney about your case. Consultations with our multi-lingual staff are free.
Causes of Motor Vehicle Accidents
Although many vehicle manufacturers have made safety improvements to vehicles, such as air bags and better tires, and states have passed tougher drunk driver laws, accidents still occur at an alarming frequency. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, someone is involved in a car accident every 10 seconds.
Our Seattle auto accident attorneys know accidents have three main causes:
Negligence of drivers who do not exercise reasonable care. This can include distracted driving, such as texting while driving, or carelessly ignoring traffic signals.
Reckless actions taken by other drivers who know that their actions can cause harm, such as speeding, following too closely (tailgating), and weaving in and out of traffic.
Strict liability usually occurs because of a defective product, such as the Firestone tire litigation or Toyota unintended acceleration accidents.
