How Is Fault Determined After a Multi-Vehicle Crash in Omaha, NE?
Fault after a multi-vehicle crash in Omaha is determined by which driver or drivers failed to drive safely. More than one driver may share responsibility, and each one then carries a percentage of the fault.
When several vehicles collide, police reports, photos, witness accounts, and video help piece together the order of impacts. These details can show which vehicle struck first, where each one was hit, and how each driver was moving.
Because Nebraska is an at-fault state, each responsible driver’s insurer may be required to pay its share of your medical bills. Since resolving the claim can take time, medical payments coverage or health insurance may help cover treatment in the meantime.
Beyond medical bills, you may recover compensation from the at-fault drivers for other losses caused by the crash. This may include lost income, vehicle damage, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on the extent of your losses and how your injuries have affected your daily life.
If you share some of the blame, your recovery drops by your percentage of fault. Being equally or more at fault than the other drivers combined stops you from recovering anything from them. Nebraska calls this rule comparative negligence.
Once the crash happens, the clock starts on your right to sue. Nebraska generally allows four years from the crash date to file a personal injury lawsuit. A court will usually dismiss a case filed after that deadline.
When drivers give different accounts of a crash, an
Omaha car accident lawyer can compare those statements with the available evidence and help determine how responsibility may be divided. An attorney can also deal with insurer disputes that follow.
