Causes of Single-Vehicle Accidents
Two of the most common conditions in which a motorist may not be responsible for a single-vehicle accident are auto product liability situations and
dangerous roads. If the motorist's car malfunctioned because of a mechanical or design failure, particularly if it was not due to
improper vehicle maintenance, the driver may be able to seek compensation from manufacturer of the faulty part or automobile.
Also, if a person crashes due to unmaintained roads, poor signage, or poorly designed roads, the persons injured may be able to get compensated by the city or often governmental entity or other party responsible for the street or highway. It is important in these situations to hire a competent lawyer for counsel and representation.
