South Florida Motor Vehicle Accident Lawyer, Florida Motor Accident Attorneys

South Florida motor vehicle accident lawyer David I. Fuchs has over 17 years of experience in successfully representing motor vehicle accident victims, their families and friends who have suffered a death in the family or sustained serious bodily injuries, pain and suffering, medical bills and lost wages because of the negligence of another driver.

A car crashes somewhere in the United States every ten seconds. Approximately two million people are injured in car crashes every year, and nearly 40,000 people lose their lives on our nation’s roadways annually. There are a number of factors that can contribute to the causes of car crashes. Each year thousands of people are injured or killed in car crashes because of automobile defects. There are a multitude of auto defects that can cause car crashes or increase the amount of injury sustained in car crashes.

Defective door latches can significantly increase the amount of injury victims sustain in car crashes. When a door latch fails to securely hold a passenger in a vehicle during a collision, it is often the result of some design or manufacturing defect in the door latch. If a vehicle is equipped with a defective door latch, the door may fly open during a car accident and the person may be ejected from the vehicle. The injuries sustained in these car crashes are often much worse than they might have been had the door latch kept the door securely in place.

Defective seat belts can also lead to passenger ejection in car crashes. Defective seatbelts can also cause or exacerbate damage to internal organs and other body parts in car crashes. Seatbelts can be defective due to design or manufacturing errors or negligence. Defective airbags also cause increased bodily harm to victims in car crashes.

Defective tires can also cause or contribute to increased damage in car crashes. Car crashes can be the direct result of a tire blowout on the roadway. Defective design, production, and repair of auto tires can significantly compromise their strength and safety posing a much higher risk of car crashes. Tread separation is a common problem in steel belted radial tires, the most popular tire on the road today. The Bridgestone/Firestone recall is the most recent example of defective tires that led to numerous car crashes.

Fuel fed fire is a serious risk in car crashes when there is a defect in an automobile’s fuel system. Fuel fed fire occurs after or during a collision because there is some defect in the fuel tank that causes it to leak fuel in an accident. Fuel fed fire not only causes extensive property damage in car crashes, it also increases the chances that a victim will suffer serious burn and other injuries.

Rollover car crashes are also much more likely in vehicles with less stability due to defective auto design or manufacturing. Almost forty percent of all rollover crashes involve sports utility vehicles (SUVs) whose unstable design makes them more prone to these serious accidents. Though SUV makers are well aware of the dangers inherent to their product’s design, they often choose to forgo safety measures for financial gain.

When car crashes are caused by, or made worse because of, auto defects, victims who have suffered damages have the legal right to seek compensation for their injuries.
