Traffic Accidents in Charlotte
Charlotte’s roadways, including Old Pineville Rd, often experience accidents due to a mix of residential and commuter traffic. Many crashes in the Westover area result from speeding, driver distraction, or failure to yield. Road conditions, visibility, and late-night driving can also increase the risk of collisions.
Even at moderate speeds, crashes can cause serious injuries such as concussions, fractures, and internal trauma, which may require hospitalization and long-term care. Victims often face financial challenges due to medical expenses, lost income, and rehabilitation costs. Under North Carolina’s contributory negligence rule, even a small percentage of fault assigned to an injured party can affect their ability to seek compensation, making strong evidence crucial in injury cases.
For those involved in a crash, seeking immediate medical care, documenting the accident scene, and understanding legal options are essential steps toward recovery.
