California Train Accidents
Train accidents occur with much more frequency than many people realize, and according to the National Safety Council, approximately 4,000 train-vehicle collisions occur at rail road crossings every year. A majority of train accidents happen when vehicles stall at rail road crossings. Sometimes vehicles can even be intentionally placed on train tracks. Whether you were injured in your motor vehicle in a train accident or were the passenger of a train that was involved in an accident, a Los Angeles personal injury lawyer from our firm can help you file a personal injury claim if it can be determined that another person’s negligence caused the accident.
There are many factors which have been known to cause train accidents, including:
- Debris on the train tracks
- Track maintenance issues
- Derailment
- Collision with other trains and vehicles
- Obstructed vision
- Driver fatigue
- Driving a train under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Driver distractions
