Rain, Snow, Sleet and Motor Vehicle Accidents
People who suffer injuries in weather-related auto accidents often think they have no course of action. That is not always the case. If the accident was the result of another driver driving too fast for conditions or because of poor highway design, it may be possible to get compensation. Since 1977, the lawyers at the law firm of Marcus & Mack have taken pride in finding every opportunity to get compensation for accident victims. If an opportunity exists in your case, you can count on us to find it. We mean business.
Accidents Caused by Driving Too Fast for Conditions
When the rain, snow and sleet starts to fall, good drivers know to slow down and be cautious. Unfortunately, not all drivers on the road are good drivers. Semi-truck drivers still have to reach their destinations in a timely manner, and they can often be seen passing other vehicles at high speeds even when visibility is seriously impaired. When these semi-truck drivers, or any other drivers, cause an accident, they cannot blame the weather. They should be held accountable for the harm they cause, and we will work hard to see that they are.
Inclement Weather and Poor Highway Design: a Dangerous Combination
Have you been hurt in a hydroplaning accident? Did you hit a patch of black ice and spin out of control? Were you unable to avoid a flash flood? Even the safest driver is at risk when poor highway design or maintenance allows for the unnatural accumulation of water and ice.
As part of our investigation, we will review the highway conditions. We will look for clogged drains or depressions in the highway that led to unnatural accumulation. Our Pittsburgh weather-related accident attorneys will take action against any and all responsible parties in order to get you the compensation you deserve.
