New York Auto Accidents

Sadly, this is an all-too-common occurrence in New York.  Every year, there are more than 300,000 New York auto accidents of one sort or another.  Of that number, almost 200,000 people are injured and another 1,200 people are killed.  Breaking that down leads to a startling conclusion - more than three people are killed in New York auto accidents every day and more than 500 people are injured.  In short, everyone is at risk at any time.

In terms of this accident, the driver of the rental truck likely made some sort of mistake.  While he sadly paid the ultimate price, he was still responsible for the safety of the other driver and most of all for his passenger.  Therefore, the driver's estate could face liability for the result of the accident should anyone who was wrongfully injured or killed decide to pursue a legal claim.  Clearly, much will depend on what specifically caused the crash.
