Corpus Christ Auto Accidents
Helping You Determine Fault
Among the many traffic violations causing accidents, speeding in school zones is particularly risky. Hitting a pedestrian often leads to a fatal accident. Of the 31 fatal accidents in 2004, 12 were pedestrians hit by a motor vehicle according to NTHSA data. Corpus Christi police have announced a crackdown on school speed zone violators to help prevent these types of pedestrian accidents, especially among children.

The lawyers at Carabin & Shaw are skilled in auto accident cases and can help you determine who is at fault in your accident.
Many factors are considered when determining fault in a motor
vehicle accident. These factors include, but are not limited to:
disobeying traffic signs or signals;
failing to signal while turning;
driving above or below the posted speed limit;
disregarding weather or traffic conditions;
failing to drive on the right side of the road; and
driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Experienced Corpus Christi car accident injury lawyers will look to
police reports, witnesses, and state traffic laws to better
determine fault in the accident. Causes of motor vehicle
accidents can help determine fault. Aggressive driving or road
rage is alarmingly becoming more frequent. Some indicators of
aggressive driving include excessive speed, frequent or careless
lane changing, using an emergency lane or shoulder to pass and
failing to signal intent among others. Contact Corpus Christi car
accident injury lawyers immediately if you feel you may be a

you of rights and guide you through the next steps to take in

Another cause of auto accidents affecting who is at fault is
mechanical defect or failure of the motor vehicle. These types
of accidents are not the fault of the driver of the vehicle, but
possibly the manufacturer or a mechanic who failed to repair the
car properly. Corpus Christi car accident injury lawyers are
