Car Injury Claims and Safety Concerns in Newark
Car accidents in Newark, Delaware, are a growing concern, with distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield contributing to a high number of crashes. The city has enacted laws to address these issues, but they continue to impact road safety. Delaware’s no-fault insurance system allows victims to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages through their insurance.
Individuals may pursue personal injury lawsuits, potentially securing higher compensation than from insurance. Consulting a personal injury attorney promptly is essential, as there is a two-year statute of limitations to file a claim in Delaware.
