Who's at Fault ?
Determining fault under Florida Law can be complicated. Here is part of the analysis that a jury may consider in determining fault in Florida:
Did the defendant driver exercised reasonable care? Did he/she operate the motor vehicle in a careful and prudent manner that will enable him or her to avoid endangering other people or property?
As with most other issues in law, it always depends on the specific facts of your case. Fact gathering and analysis are very important in winning or losing any type of court case.
In determining reasonable care the jury takes into consideration relevant circumstances including width and grade of the roadway, presence and angles of curves and corners, amount of and type of traffic are but some details taken into consideration of who is at fault. Only after considering all the facts brought forward by both sides will a jury make a legal determination of who is at fault.
