What If The Road Did It?
Even when designed and maintained “by the book,” the road may have had a greater hand in an accident than appears – even to a seasoned investigator’s eye.
The interplay between the road, vehicles, drivers and the law can be far more complex than typically imagined. Courts recognize that substantive factors like road-shaped driver expectations and historical data can have a critical impact on findings of fault.
Road owners face increased exposure. And new recovery opportunities beckon astute claims professionals.
Simply finding a defect in road design is not enough for fault. You have to prove the causal connection – or not. That’s where deeply specialized knowledge and vast experience make the difference.
