A vehicular collision in Santa Clara County can instantaneously disrupt every aspect of your life.

A car accident lawyer from Moseley Collins Law can level the playing field by:

• Conducting a thorough investigation of your accident
• Gathering crucial evidence to support your claim
• Properly valuing your current and future damages
• Negotiating with insurance companies on your behalf
• Representing you in court if necessary

Santa Clara County's busy roadways see thousands of vehicles daily, creating conditions for various types of accidents. Understanding the common causes can help in building a strong car accident lawsuit:

With technology becoming increasingly integrated into our daily lives, distracted driving has emerged as a leading cause of accidents. Using phones, adjusting navigation systems, or even eating while driving can divert attention from the road.

Exceeding speed limits and engaging in aggressive driving behaviors significantly increases the risk of serious accidents, especially on Santa Clara County's congested highways.

Despite strict laws against impaired driving, accidents caused by drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs remain a serious problem in Santa Clara County.

While Santa Clara County generally enjoys favorable weather, occasional rain, fog, or strong winds can create hazardous driving conditions that contribute to accidents.

Some roads and highways in Santa Clara County have higher accident rates due to heavy traffic, complex interchanges, or challenging designs:

• Interstate 280 (Junipero Serra Freeway)
• US Route 101 (Bayshore Freeway)
• State Route 17 (especially the mountain section)
• Lawrence Expressway
• El Camino Real (State Route 82)
• Montague Expressway
• San Tomas Expressway
• Capitol Expressway

These high-traffic corridors often see more frequent accidents, particularly during rush hours when congestion is at its peak.

Car accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, from minor to catastrophic. Some of the most common include:

Even with airbag deployment, the sudden impact of a collision can cause the brain to strike the inside of the skull, resulting in concussions or more severe brain trauma.

Damage to the spinal cord can lead to partial or complete paralysis, requiring extensive medical treatment and long-term care.

The force of impact in a car accident commonly results in broken arms, legs, ribs, or pelvis, which may require surgery and extended recovery periods.

Whiplash, sprains, and strains often occur in car accidents, causing significant pain and potentially long-lasting effects on mobility.

Blunt force trauma from accidents can cause internal bleeding and damage to organs that may not be immediately apparent but can be life-threatening.

Many accident victims experience post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, or depression following a serious collision.
