Common Types of Negligence in Auto Accidents #4: Driver Error
Utah law requires drivers to maintain control of their vehicles at all times. When a driver fails to maintain control of a vehicle, it can usually be traced back to driver error. Factors contributing to driver error include fatigue, drowsiness, distractions (cell phone use, eating, etc.), inattention, intoxication (drugs, alcohol, medications) and aggressive driving. A study conducted by Virginia Tech University in 2006 showed 80 percent of motor vehicle crashes involved distraction, fatigue or looking away from the road. The same study showed that 93 percent of rear-end collisions occurred as a consequence of inattention. Note that harm caused by driving under the influence is not just a criminal violation — it can also be grounds for a civil suit.

Common Types of Negligence in Auto Accidents #3: Equipment Failure
Mechanical failures leading to car accidents often involve brakes, tires, steering mechanisms or suspension. A malfunction might point to negligence on the part of the owner or operator of the car, a mechanic or auto repair shop or the manufacturer for designing flawed equipment (e.g., seatbelts, airbags or roofs). Some of the best known cases of equipment failure involve manufacturer design flaws and often result in class action lawsuits involving large settlements. If you suspect equipment failure or a manufacturing defect contributed to an accident you were involved in, be sure to retain possession of your car so that it can be used as evidence in a trial, if necessary.

Common Types of Negligence in Auto Accidents #2:
Traffic Law Violations
Every driver owes a duty to others to obey the rules of the road. When a driver chooses to disobey the rules of the road, the driver is negligent and is responsible to make up for the harm the driver causes. Most car accidents can be traced to negligence in the form of one or more traffic violations. Common violations include speeding, tailgating, improper lane changing, and failing to yield the right of way.
