Brooklyn defective road accident lawyer Samantha Kucher releases a new article (https://www.rrklawgroup.com/brooklyn-car-accident-lawyer/) explaining the common road defects in New York City. The lawyer mentions that recently, New York has been named 10th for the worst roads in the United State. It can be dangerous to drive around Brooklyn, considering the confusing roadways, aggressive drivers, and the constant stop-and-go traffic.
“New Yorkers have lived with ongoing potholes, inadequate repairs, road shoulder deterioration, and poor road design for decades. These road hazards cause damage to vehicles resulting in thousands of dollars in repairs each year. Even more concerning, are the accidents they cause resulting in costly injuries and the loss of human life,” says the Brooklyn defective road accident lawyer.
The lawyer explains that according to TRIP, a national transportation nonprofit organization, approximately 45 percent of roadways in New York are in disrepair. Driving on these roads cost New York motorists around $7.7 billion a year in vehicle repair and depreciation. There are also the injuries and fatalities suffered by those who are involved in accidents caused by road hazards.
Attorney Samantha Kucher adds that according to a study conducted by the AAA foundation, road safety improvements would actually significantly reduce fatalities in road defect accidents. This is the same for roads across the United States.
In the article, the lawyer lists the common defects and hazards in New York City roads. These defects include poor road design, insufficient traffic signals and signs, inadequate drainage, uneven pavement, lack of cautionary signage at hazards or construction zones, and potholes.
The accident attorney also says, “State, county, or municipal governments are responsible for road maintenance in and around New York City, depending on the road. But government entities are specially protected from liability as long as they have performed their duties adequately. While injured parties may have the right to sue a government entity or their employees in matters of negligent maintenance or design, it is more difficult to pursue these cases.”
Lastly, attorney Kucher emphasizes the importance of seeking the help of an experienced defective road accident lawyer. Having a skilled attorney may be able to help the victim receive the compensation they deserve for their injuries.
