Most drivers know the dangers of physical distractions, such as using a cell phone or eating while behind the wheel. Drivers are equally familiar with the risks posed by visual distractions, like slowing down to stare at an accident scene or searching the car floor for a lost item. However, one distraction that often goes unnoticed is cognitive distraction, which can pose as much of a risk as any physical or visual diversion. As a responsible motorist, it’s crucial to guard against such cognitive distractions for your well-being and the safety of others. Learn more by visiting our website.

In an ordinary vehicle crash, the driver is assigned fault. Even in an accident case involving a “self-driving” Tesla, the driver is still required to monitor the car’s progress and is held responsible for any error. But what if there is no one behind the wheel? If you are in an accident with a driverless truck or vehicle, the company that operates it can be held liable. If an 18-wheel robotruck from Kodiak caused the collision, Kodiak would be liable for your injuries. Learn more by visiting our website.

Tesla, the leading manufacturer of electric vehicles, has recently announced a recall of over 2 million vehicles in response to safety concerns related to its autonomous driver assistance system Autopilot. This recall follows a comprehensive two-year investigation by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which found critical issues with Tesla’s driver monitoring system.

Ultimately, Tesla’s recall underscores the serious safety concerns associated with Autopilot. As investigations reveal defects in the monitoring system, drivers and passengers affected by these issues must be aware of their legal options. Seeking guidance from a qualified attorney can make a significant difference in navigating the complexities of a case involving automotive safety defects. Learn more by visiting our website.

Attorney Marc Lenahan is representing a victim from an incident involving Rashee Rice, the Kansas City Chiefs' wide receiver, following a multi-car collision that occurred on March 30th. Rashee has reportedly admitted to NBC Sports that he was the operator of the Lamborghini seen in the video. He fled the scene of the accident where victims were injured.

"When people run away from a problem they caused, you imagine they run in the other direction. They walked right past the people they hurt, right past the people with cameras. It’s very, very strange, but that was the quickest way to get to a ramp," Marc Lenahan told FOX 4 News.

The proper procedure following an accident — whether it was your fault or not — is to exchange insurance information with the other driver and make an incident report with the police. However, knowing this does not keep dishonest people from fleeing the scene of an accident that they caused.

Such an incident is referred to as a hit-and-run, and it leaves the victims in an incredibly difficult position. How do you file a claim and receive compensation for serious injuries when you don’t know who hit you?

This may come as a surprise, but you have more resources than you realize. One essential resource is the support of a knowledgeable attorney like those at The Lenahan Law Firm. Our Dallas car accident lawyers have worked with severely injured hit-and-run victims in the past, and we understand how devastating these collisions can be. Learn more by visiting our website.

The inherent dangers associated with motorcycles are undeniable, especially when compared to other motor vehicles. The following characteristics of motorcycles increase the risk of injury to riders:
⚫️ Vulnerability to external factors
⚫️ Limited visibility
⚫️ Agility and speed
⚫️ Lane-splitting accidents
⚫️ Left-turn accidents
When a motorcyclist gets injured in an accident, experienced personal injury lawyers can help in multiple ways. One of the first things they do is investigate the accident to collect evidence that helps establish liability and determine the cause of the accident. This investigation is crucial in building a strong case for the injured party. Learn more by clicking the link below.

The answer to this points to a common failing of law firms. Most severely injured clients will be told that the maximum value of their claim is the amount of insurance held by the person who caused their injury, plus any extra insurance they, the injured person, might have. In the instance of a car collision, that number is often $30,000 or $60,0000. For 18-wheelers, it is typically $750,000 or $1,000,000.
Why do we consider that a “failing?” Well, because there might be more, way, way, way more; but attorneys with hundreds of thousands of clients do not have the time to try to find out. You will be told to take the first offer with no way of knowing if that's good advice. It is true that we can’t find “way more” nearly as often as our clients deserve, but we certainly try to, and we have succeeded many times. Learn more by clicking the link below.
