How Is Fault Determined in a Multi-Car Accident in TX?

The Complex Nature of Multi-Car Accident Claims is Best Met by Experienced Attorneys in Texas says Terry Bryant Accident & Injury Law

HOUSTON, May 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Car accident claims are complex to navigate, as the question of fault and liability is an undercurrent to the entire case. This is even further complicated when the accident in question involves multiple parties. Such is the case for multi-car accidents.

The intricacies of a multi-car accident occur because of the potential for multiple victims and more than one negligent party.

It is important to note that Texas is an at-fault state. Anyone who caused the accident, even partly, can be responsible for and sued for their wrongdoing. Additionally, according to Texas statute, any person found liable is entitled to damages only in proportion to their percentage of responsibility for the accident. If they are more than 50% at fault, they are not entitled to any damages.

A jury will assign a degree of responsibility to all parties in the accident. Any form of negligence, minor or major, will be factored into this decision. Similarly, the degree of injuries, property damage, and more will be examined.

Ascertaining fault in a multi-car accident usually begins by determining whose negligent action came first. In most cases, the other parties followed by acting negligently to attempt to circumvent the initial action.

It is overly simplistic to assume that the initial negligent party bears the entire responsibility for the accident, so a rigorous examination of the accident is required. Consequently, multi-car accident cases tend to be more arduous and lengthier.

Those involved in multi-car accidents in Texas are strongly advised to enlist an experienced attorney as soon as reasonably possible.
