Left turn accidents causing intersection crashes, head-on collisions, and side-impact crashes can be devastating.

When drivers fail to yield right-of-way or initiate dangerous sharp turns into oncoming traffic the results can be tragic.

These reckless driver behaviors typically cause devastating collisions with innocent motorists who had the right of way.

Negligent left turn crashes are among the most deadly traffic accidents on American roads and intersections.

These left-turn crashes often leave victims facing catastrophic injuries and overwhelming medical bills.

Don't Let Insurance Companies Escape Liability for Left Turn Negligence

Most left turn crashes occur because drivers violate traffic laws by failing to yield to oncoming vehicles or making sharp turns against traffic signals.

Turning through oncoming traffic is a hazardous maneuver, and extra caution should be taken to execute the maneuver safely.

Drivers turning left must wait for a safe gap in oncoming traffic and yield to all approaching vehicles.

Negligent drivers who violate traffic laws and cause left turn crashes face legal liability for compensating injured victims.

Insurance companies will challenge every aspect of your crash to reduce their payout, which is why you need experienced legal representation.

What makes left turn accidents particularly dangerous?

Left turn collisions typically result in severe T-bone or side-impact crashes.

When turning vehicle cuts directly across oncoming traffic lanes, it often doesn't give drivers enough time to react or avoid the collision.

This can result in collisions with vehicles travelling at high speeds hitting the turning vehicle where they are most vulnerable.

These accidents typically result in severe injuries and all too often these cases are fatal.

Who is typically at fault in left turn accidents?

In most left-turn crashes, the driver making the turn failed to yield and bears the blame. Not always, though.

Lawsuit Legal has handled more than 40,000 cases nationwide, and left-turn collisions arrive in every variation.

Those cases range from motorists hit by drunk drivers while lawfully waiting to turn, to drivers who drifted across the centerline while distracted, to a truck driver asleep at the wheel plowing into a car waiting its turn. Sometimes the traffic signal itself malfunctioned. Each case is unique.

Intersections concentrate risk: turning vehicles, crossing traffic, pedestrians, and changing signals all share the same space. An accident lawyer who has handled these cases can review the facts and evidence and tell you whether your claim has merit.

Filing an insurance claim against the at-fault driver's policy allows injured victims to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other crash-related damages.

 

What Your Left Turn Accident Case Is Really Worth

Your left turn accident case could be worth a substantial sum depending on the extent of your injuries and accident-related losses. The expertise of our attorneys with the insurance claim process, policy limits, and hidden compensation sources give you the best chance at recovering what you're really owed.

Insurance adjusters are trained to settle fast and cheap. After a serious collision, they'll typically contact you within hours (often before you've even seen a doctor) with a lowball offer, because they know you are reeling, overwhelmed, and hurt. They are counting on that vulnerability to get you to accept a woefully undervalued settlement.

Your serious car accident case could be worth millions when you understand policy stacking, insurance coverage limits, and hidden compensation sources insurance companies don't want you to discover.

Most accident victims settle for less than they should because nobody looked past the obvious policy. The negligent driver's primary liability coverage may sit alongside an umbrella policy or an employer's commercial coverage, and when those sources stack together, a $25,000 settlement can become a seven-figure recovery.

Our award-winning personal injury lawyers know exactly what it takes to win big settlements for the seriously injured.

After an accident our mission is to identify every available insurance dollar and fight relentless to see you get compensated fairly.

Let Lawsuit Legal handle the legal burden while you focus on recovery.

 

 

The Common Left Turn Crash Cases That Call Us For Legal Help

We see the same devastating left turn traffic accident scenarios contacting us for help week after week, often of a similar profile. Whether the collision occurred at a traffic light, four way stop, or other intersection, the common element is typically a negligent driver who gambled with innocent lives and lost.

Most are preventable crashes involving impatient, reckless drivers who make split-second decisions that get people hurt.

Typical left turn collision scenarios include:

• Expired green arrow turns: Clients T-boned by drivers who accelerated through expired protected arrows, causing traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage after side impact
• Turns rushed against a yellow light: Families devastated when turning drivers gambled against yellow lights and misjudged the turn into oncoming traffic moving at 50+ mph
• Misjudged gaps in oncoming traffic: Motorcycle riders and compact car drivers struck by negligent left turners who improperly judge closing speeds and distance of oncoming vehicles
• Turns across multiple lanes: Victims hit by drivers turning blind across three lanes of traffic, often at dangerously designed intersections with limited visibility of oncoming vehicles
• Forced turns in rush-hour traffic: Commuters struck by impatient drivers who forced dangerous turns during peak traffic while in a hurry to get to their destination
• Left turns into parking lots and shopping centers: Pedestrians and shoppers hit by drivers making reckless left turns into crowded parking lots and failing to yield to people on foot
• Turns through construction zones: Clients injured when drivers ignored temporary signals and turned through altered traffic patterns in construction zones

Proving these cases comes down to evidence. Traffic cameras, skid marks, and witness statements can paint a clear picture of a driver who ignored basic safety rules. Let the evidence show that their choices led to the collision and caused the harm you suffered.

The impact of these crashes is often brutal. When a 15 mph turning vehicle gets slammed by a 45 mph oncoming car, the occupants rarely escape unharmed. The injuries run from broken bones and internal bleeding to chronic pain and months of rehabilitation. Your legal team will need to document the impact those injuries have had on your life.

You didn't choose this nightmare. Some reckless driver decided their convenience mattered more than your safety. Now you're stuck with medical bills, lost wages, and pain that won't go away.

That's exactly why our experienced legal team is here. The accident lawyers at Lawsuit Legal know how to get results.

Let us handle the legal process to secure the maximum compensation you deserve.
