Transportation Accidents
Transportation accidents encompass all forms of public and private transportation. Automobile crashes account for the most common case in this category; however other cases involve involving bicycles, motorcycles, trains, buses, and semi-trucks, to name a few. The law that applies to these various categories may depend on state law or federal law.
Like other areas of law, various types of insurance apply to transportation accidents. Even though the State of Illinois requires every automobile be covered by insurance, far too often drivers operate uninsured vehicles. However, even in accidents where the at-fault driver does not have insurance, there may be ways for an injured person to recover.
It is important to remember when an insurance company gets involved, the insurance company has experienced adjusters capable and prepared to do what is necessary to limit your right of recovery.
