New Jersey winters can turn everyday roads into danger zones. Snow, black ice, and poor visibility often lead to accidents, but knowing your rights can protect you and your loved ones.
Who’s Responsible for Winter Weather Accidents?
Even in bad weather, drivers are responsible for operating their vehicles safely. If someone else’s negligence caused your accident, you might be entitled to compensation.
You can recover damages for:
• Medical expenses
• Lost income
• Vehicle damage
• Pain and suffering
Common Causes of Winter Car Accidents in New Jersey
Understanding the causes of winter accidents can strengthen your case. These often include:
• Reckless or aggressive driving
• Failing to clear snow from windshields or roofs (violating “Snow Removal Laws”)
• Speeding on icy roads
• Poorly maintained roads or inadequate snow removal
How to Protect Your Rights After a Crash
1. Document the Scene: Take photos of the vehicles, road conditions, and your injuries.
2. Get Medical Attention: Even if you feel fine, some injuries show up later.
3. Call a Lawyer: Don’t let insurance companies undervalue your claim.
