Black Ice Causing Auto Accidents Resulting In Settlements Against Governmental Entity
The California Personal Injury Lawyers of Nadrich & Cohen handles every kind of auto related injury cases. Their auto accident lawyers just resolved a case of an individual who was in an accident caused by a large stretch of black ice on a city road. As a result of the black ice the victim's car slide into opposite lanes and collided with another vehicle head on. Client suffered severe injuries including multiple fractures and a mild head injury necessitating surgeries. We argued that the negligent design of the road committed the formation of black ice which is a known hazard to motorists. We showed that the roadway design caused water to drain into a depression in the road and that lack of proper drainage caused the water to be pooled and sprayed and spread out across the road by passing traffic were exposed to form black ice. The condition had been in existence for many years. We proved it by the cracking in the asphalt from the water buildup. We showed that the black ice caused our client to lose control of his vehicle and that he could not see and did not know there was ice on the road until his car was skidding and sliding sideways. Case settled for confidential settlement.
