Auto Accidents in Construction Zones

Across the country, new construction zones are set up to maintain highway safety as a “cure” to the cause of dangerous roadways. Although deteriorating or inadequate roads cannot be ignored, statistics on accidents in construction zones testify to how dangerous the cure is.

Few of us can avoid these maze-like detours. Many drivers become impatient when construction delays them with waits up to thirty minutes. Impatient or fatigued truck drivers may become aggressive. Patrol officers are the only known deterrent to speeders in construction zones. But law enforcement budgets just can’t afford to post an officer at each construction site. So, infractions that compromise safety continue.

On the construction side, there are many errors and negligent acts that construction workers do regularly. A thorough investigation of a construction zone accident can reveal multiple infractions that compromised safety, causing or worsening the accident.

When an experienced and competent law team investigates construction zone accidents they are able to uncover the parties liable for your injuries and losses, and pursue an appropriate settlement for you.
