Florida Driving Duties
When individuals get behind the wheel of a vehicle few consider the legal implications imposed on them by law. Only after a vehicle accident do most people even consider it.
Under Florida law every driver of a motor vehicle has a Duty to Use Reasonable Care in the operation of their vehicle. What does it mean to use reasonable care?
Reasonable care is case specific. In other words, it depends on the particular circumstances and facts of the case. Every case is different. Want something more concrete? Here are some general rules you must follow as a Florida driver: Pay attention for emergencies, be attentive to the presence of children and avoid behavior that injures your passengers.
