Government Vehicle Accident

If you’ve been involved in an accident with a government vehicle and are not at fault, you might have some questions. You might wonder if you are entitled to recover damages from the government. You might wonder what kinds of damages you can recover. You might also wonder what to do next in order to go about obtaining any financial compensation you may deserve. Fortunately, there is help available. A San Diego car accident personal attorney can answer all of these questions and help you fight to protect your rights.

Government Vehicles and Collisions
There are a number of different types of government vehicles, and there are also different ways that accidents can happen. Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, school buses and mail trucks are just some of the many different kinds of government vehicles. A collision can happen when an emergency vehicle rushes too quickly and carelessly through an intersection. You might find yourself sitting a stop light when you are rear-ended by a school bus. You could also find yourself driving along a street when a mail truck parked on the side of the road pulls out in front of you. These are just some of the many circumstances that can lead to a collision with a government vehicle that is no fault of your own.

Damages and Liability
If you are involved in a collision with a government vehicle that is not your fault, you might be entitled to recover damages to your vehicle as well as damages for any injuries that are a result of the collision. While a government and its agents and employees are protected from liability for damages in many circumstances due to a concept known as “sovereign immunity,” that protection does not apply to car accidents in many cases. This means that you may be able to recover any damages you are entitled to directly from the government or government employees involved in the accident.

The Importance of an Experienced Government Vehicle Accident Lawyer
If you are involved in an accident with a government vehicle, it is crucial that you not try to fight the government on your own. An experienced San Diego personal injury attorney is familiar with the complex laws surrounding government liability for car accidents. It can be much more difficult to prove fault for a car accident when the government is involved, but an experienced attorney will know how to help you succeed with your case.

An experienced government car accident attorney will also be familiar with the strict procedures necessary for filing a personal injury claim against the government. There are tight deadlines involved in filing your claim as well as very specific information your claim must contain, and an attorney can help you navigate through all of this.
