From speeding on I-95 to distracted driving in school zones, the causes of car crashes are varied—but most are preventable. Common causes we see in Boca Raton include:

Distracted Driving – Phone use, texting, eating, or adjusting GPS while driving.
Speeding and Reckless Driving – Especially dangerous on Palmetto Park Road, Yamato Road, and Glades Road.
Running Red Lights – Leading to deadly side-impact or T-bone crashes.
Driving Under the Influence – Alcohol, marijuana, or prescription medication impairing judgment and reaction time.
Fatigued Driving – Especially among rideshare drivers, truckers, or shift workers.
Improper Lane Changes or Merging – Failing to signal or check blind spots.
Teen or Inexperienced Drivers – Lack of driving maturity can lead to critical errors.
Vehicle Defects – Brake failures, tire blowouts, or steering issues due to defective parts.
Poor Road Conditions – Potholes, lack of signage, or hazardous construction zones.

Identifying the exact cause of your crash is essential to proving liability and building a successful claim.

What to Do After a Car Accident in Boca Raton

Taking the right steps after an accident can help protect both your health and your legal claim:

Get Medical Attention Immediately: Visit a local ER or urgent care even if symptoms seem minor—some injuries take time to appear.
Call the Police: Contact the Boca Raton Police Department or Florida Highway Patrol to file an official accident report.
Document the Scene: Take photos of damage, license plates, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Collect witness contact info. It will also be useful to observe if the person that caused the crash was working at the time of the collision or driving for a rideshare service.
Avoid Giving Statements to Insurers: Do not give a recorded statement or accept a quick settlement before speaking with a lawyer.
Contact a Car Accident Attorney: The sooner you call us, the sooner we can begin protecting your rights and building your case. Also, you only have a limited amount of time to pursue a claim. This time limitation is called a statute of limitations and for most monster vehicle accidents in Florida the time limit will be two years from the date the accident occurred.
