Freehold Car Accident Lawyers Can Assist With Many Types Of Motor Vehicle Accidents

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 70% of all motor vehicle accidents in the United States in 2018 involved four-door hard-top passenger sedans. However, car accidents can be of other types too, such as truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, speeding, drunk driving, aggressive driving, and construction site accidents.

Driver errors are the leading causes of car accidents in America, as per the NHTSA. There are countless ways that a driver can make a mistake while operating his or her vehicle, and it can be difficult to determine the specific cause of an accident. For example, an accident caused by a drunk driver will probably be categorized as a drinking and driving accident even if speeding, poor visibility, or other factors caused or contributed to the crash.

Liability and Damages

New Jersey is a no-fault state. After an accident, you must file a personal injury or damages claim with your insurer.

All New Jersey drivers are required to carry the following insurance:

• Liability insurance: This pays others for damages that you cause in an accident. Medical expenses are not included.
• Personal injury protection (PIP): This pays medical expenses if you or others covered by your policy are injured in an accident. This is called no-fault coverage.
• Uninsured motorist coverage: This protects you if you are involved in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver or a hit-and-run driver.

In addition to the above, you may wish to carry other forms of coverage, such as rideshare driver coverage, comprehensive coverage, and collision coverage. In some cases, even your health insurance plan may be used to cover accident-related expenses covered by your policy.
