Auto Accidents

Data has not been compiled for 2013 nor for all of 2012. In 2011 there were 32,367 motor vehicle deaths in the U.S. as motor vehicle deaths have been decling since 2005 you can expect 2013 to be around 32,000.

Yes you can. Even though your the one that swerved & caused the wreck your also the one that was trying to avoid the accident & hurting something. Which then caused your wreck. So if you hadn't swerved to miss the deer you would have hit the deer & been in a wreck anyway, plus you would have hurt the deer. So your wreck was inevitable, it was going to happen no matter what. Yes you can claim it, because you were actually trying to avoid an accident. Hope my answer helped. Good Luck!

More info-- one driver was speeding down a residential street late for work and hit a parked car's slightly open door and ripped it off. The parked car driver had a license and coverage but it was a new lease and had not yet added the new car to the policy. The in-motion driver had current coverage but no drivers license. Both claim the other is At Fault. Who is more screwed?

The figures from the US Census.gov only go back to 2011 and there were a total of 10.8 million vehicle accidents, 32,080 peole died. The number of accidens is growning, but fatalaties are declining. This is probably because of cell phones and navigation screens distracting drivers, but the decline in deaths is modern safety equipment like air bags

Where I live, Alberta Canada, the maximum by law is $3000.00

Jurisdictions where the govenment was not influenced by the Insurance Companies often have higher payouts

A large percentage is because of eating or drinking while driving, and 25% of car accidents are caused due to talking on the mobile phone while at the wheel of the car. It is estimated that 2.25% of all vehicular crashes involve intoxicated drivers.

Diving board accidents resulting in fatalities are relatively rare but can occur. Estimates suggest that there are a few dozen deaths each year in the United States related to diving accidents, with many more resulting in serious injuries. The majority of these incidents involve improper technique, shallow water, or collisions with the diving board or the pool bottom. However, specific statistics on diving board-related fatalities may vary, and comprehensive data can be challenging to obtain.

Criminal mischief, possibly 3rd degree conspiracy, vandalism, trespassing, breaking and entering.

It takes a real moran to ask a question like this one. You make it sound like its a lottery winning. Come on down her and I'll take my Louisville Slugger and double your money for you. Idiot.

I believe you are saying one care is parked and is hit by another car that leaves the scene of the accident. If your vehicle has uninsured motorist coverage then the UM coverage will pay to repair your vehicle less your deductible. If later a witness or the offender turns himself in and your company had already paid, the other party will reimburse the insurance company and they will reimburse you for your deductible.

The person who is backing out of the driveway is completely at fault. Even if the other party was illegally parked, the driver of the other vehicle has the responsibility to look behind them for clearance.

Not in most states. The other person who was at fault's insurance will pay for your injuries as well as damage to your vehicle and property.

There is no automatic number. Contact an attorney.

One Word answer: Yes

Hard to say without knowing the situation in detail.

If you failed to contact the police after the accident you may be in serious trouble here. You have no proof that an accident even occurred except for the damage to your vehicle. Do you know the other party? If not why would you allow them to leave without getting some information from them? This sounds fishy to me and I'm sure it will to your insurance company as well. Unless you plan to just pay for it yourself, I would recommend that you tell the company the whole truth in the matter and not try to make up something to help a friend as they have seen it all.

no. in any car accident unless the cop feels it is necessary and you have given them just cause to need a test then this is not required. DUI and DWI tests are subject to the police officer at the scene and what they witness and attest too.

In 1966, there were 16 incidents which resulted in a airplane crash where people were killed. Of those 16, 3 occurred on American soil while the remaining 13 took place overseas.

Seat belts don't cause accidents, drivers do. Even when seat belts fail, it is due to operator error.

By being more attentive while driving and following the rules of the road and not yielding the right-of-way because you feel like being nice. The rules are in place for a reason, and the reason is safety and the integrity of the transportation system.

Insurance is sold and regulated state by state, but you are covered when you drive out of state. Also, insurance covers whoever is driving the car unless there is some weird law in Oklahoma that I don't know about.

problem being is was liability guess they don't do anything for liability.. I was the passenger and got all the injuries.. broken ankle, broken femur, lacerations to the face, and a concussion. the other personthat caused the accident didn't have any insurance and my bf hadPIP coverage.. my dad only put liabilitysince Oklahoma doesn't havethe no fault insurance.. and I was borrowing the vehicle until I could afford my ownso it wasbeing garaged in Kansas.. so now im just trying to find any loophole I could possibly get through because I have serious issuesand have not got anything to help..

You were on the road so had the right of way. The person in the driveway is at fault. He/she didn't yield. They hit you. You DIDN'T hit them. Remember that if you go to court or talk with insurance.
