When Dangerous Roadways Cause Motor Vehicle Accidents
Many multi- and single-vehicle accidents on New Jersey roads are actually the result of dangerous roadways. At the Ferrara Law Firm, LLC, we conduct in-depth investigations of all factors involved in motor vehicle accidents. This thorough investigation may combine the work of road and highway design experts, engineers, surveyors, illumination and warning experts and accident investigators.
When a roadway design defect is found to be the cause of an accident, our Cherry Hill, New Jersey, law firm holds the proper entities accountable. These may include municipalities, states, cities, counties or private contractors.
There are many causes of dangerous roadways, including improperly designed and maintained roadways:
- Improper shoulder drop-off
- Improper design or placement of median barriers
- Obstruction of a clear zone of travel
- Hazardous road conditions related to ice, sleet or snow
- Construction not marked properly
- Lack of guardrails
Roads throughout New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania are sometimes found to be host to dangerous road conditions. These include Interstate 295, the Jersey Turnpike, the Garden State Parkway and I-95, as well as others.
By proving that a roadway is dangerous or defective, we do more than just provide compensation to injured individuals. We encourage governmental entities to improve the safety of their roadways.
