How Can Traffic Camera Footage Impact Your Personal Injury Claim?
Establishing fault can be difficult even if you know whose negligence caused your injuries. Traffic camera footage can play a significant role in proving the liable party breached their duty of care and caused the accident, your injuries, and other damages in the following ways:
Show Clear Violations
If the at-fault party violated traffic laws, such as running a red light, speeding, or making an illegal turn, traffic camera footage can clearly show these negligent actions and prove their liability.
Visual Evidence
While your statement and witness testimony can be powerful, sometimes visual evidence is key to achieving a successful outcome. Showing traffic camera footage to insurance adjusters and juries can have a major impact on their decisions.
Increased Chances of Fair Compensation
Traffic camera footage can significantly increase your chances of securing fair compensation. With such clear video evidence, insurance adjusters may be less likely to dispute your responsibility for the accident and offer you unfair compensation.
Sequence of Events
Car accidents and other incidents can happen quickly, making it challenging to understand the event’s details and whose negligence caused your injuries, especially in cases involving multiple vehicles or hit-and-runs. Traffic camera footage can clarify details of the collision and help determine what actually happened. This can be useful in cases with conflicting accounts of the accident.
Traffic camera footage can be crucial evidence that helps establish liability and prove negligence, but it can be time-consuming and difficult to obtain. Fortunately, our Hollis Law Firm lawyer is here to help determine who owns the footage, navigate legal complexities, and prevent delays. We act quickly to secure the footage before it is overwritten so you can present the strongest possible claim to adjusters and juries, if necessary.
