Car accidents are complex events that can be caused by a variety of factors. While factors such as heavy traffic and adverse weather often play a role in auto collisions, the fact is that the majority are due to the reckless and negligent actions of the drivers involved. Our car accident attorneys represent those who suffer serious injuries in these accidents. With over 60 years of combined experience, we help drivers, passengers, bicyclists, and pedestrians involved in these types of accidents get the compensation to which they are entitled for the injuries they suffer.
Protecting You Against Reckless Drivers
While you may pride yourself on your defensive driving skills or your years of experience behind the wheel, you cannot control the behavior of other drivers. According to the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA), risky, reckless driving on the part of others is a leading cause of serious and potentially life-threatening car accidents and injuries.

- Being distracted by cellphones, texting, or other devices

Speed-Related Car Accidents in Tennessee
Of the various types of reckless driving behaviors, speeding is one of the most common. According to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, the number of speeding-related crashes continues to increase annually throughout the state. They are the number one cause of car accident injuries and fatalities in Davidson County.
Drivers may exceed posted speed limits due to not paying attention, being in a rush to get to their destination, or engaging in illegal activities such as racing. Unfortunately, the faster a car is going, the greater the impact in the event a collision occurs. As a result, speed-related crashes tend to be among the most serious and potentially deadly. At Bednarz Law, we help you get compensation to cover losses you suffer when these types of accidents occur, whether they are caused by another driver or due to losing control while operating your own vehicle.
