Attorney Eric Blank

As you may already know, there are many different potential behaviors and circumstances that can lead to an accident. These causes can prove liability or negligence and can point to the responsible party. Though there are many, many possibilities, they can be narrowed down to the most common causes that occur.

Aggressive driving is a regular occurrence, especially during high-pressure times on the roads, such as holiday traffic or rush hour. These particular times can be extremely stressful, and this stress can present itself as aggressive driving. Aggressive driving is classified as any combination of moving traffic offenses that potentially endanger others. This includes excessive speeding, tailgating, running red lights, erratic lane changes, and illegal passing. These behaviors often come with no warning to other drivers, and accidents can be difficult to avoid because of that.

While driving, there are multiple other distractions that beg for our attention, such as unread notifications, text messages, phone calls, food, changing the music, interacting with other passengers, and much more. All of these behaviors take our focus off of the road for any amount of time, which can be dangerous for others on the roads. Often distracted driving causes detrimental accidents and catastrophic injuries, all of which can be prevented by simply paying attention.
