Fatal Car Accidents

Fatal car accidents can be defined as any automobile collision or accident that results in the death of either driver, passenger, or pedestrian. In all fatal car accidents, law enforcement will immediately open a criminal investigation to determine fault and to determine whether the fault is determined to be criminally negligent. Fatal car accidents may result in criminal cases and trials. In addition, fatal car accidents may also result in wrongful death suits being filed by the estate of the decedents. These civil proceedings are entirely different proceedings than criminal cases, and in fatal car accident civil suits, insurance companies and other entities may become involved due to the potential loss of money in judgment awards.

Fast Facts

  • Fatal car accidents resulting in civil suits may be filed for claims of compensation stemming from the death of a given individual.
  • Fatal car accidents may also be deemed the fault of manufacturers of vehicles and even metropolitan areas due to poor roadway conditions or other situations.
