Motor Vehicle Litigation
A lawsuit is required when liability is contested. The defendant will then be given the opportunity to respond to the complaint.
New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that when a jury finds you to be at fault for an accident the damages you incur will be reduced based on your percentage of blame. There is a caveat to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes owners of vehicles rented or leased by minors.
Duty of Care
In a negligence case, the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant was bound by the duty of care toward them. This duty is owed by everyone, but those who operate vehicles owe an even greater obligation to other people in their field. This includes not causing accidents in motor vehicle law vehicles.
Courtrooms evaluate an individual's behavior to what a typical individual would do in similar circumstances to determine a reasonable standard of care. In the event of medical malpractice, expert witnesses are usually required. Experts who have a greater understanding of the field could be held to a higher standard of care.
If someone violates their duty of care, it may cause damage to the victim as well as their property. The victim has to demonstrate that the defendant's violation of their duty resulted in the harm and damages they sustained. Proving causation is a critical part of any negligence case and motor vehicle case requires looking at both the actual causes of the injury damages as well as the reason for the injury or damage.
For instance, if a person runs a red light and is stopped, they'll be hit by another car. If their car is damaged they'll be accountable for repairs. The reason for an accident could be a brick cut that develops into an infection.
Breach of Duty
A breach of duty by a defendant is the second element of negligence that needs to be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury claim. A breach of duty happens when the actions of a party who is at fault are not in line with what a reasonable person would do in similar circumstances.
For example, a doctor has a variety of professional obligations to his patients, arising from state law and licensing boards. Drivers are required to protect other motorists and pedestrians, as well as to adhere to traffic laws. Drivers who violate this duty and causes an accident is accountable for the injuries suffered by the victim.
A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of a duty of care and then show that the defendant failed to meet the standard in his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant fulfilled or did not meet the standard.
The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty by the defendant was the proximate cause of the injuries. This is sometimes more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty or breach. For instance an individual defendant could have crossed a red light, but it's likely that his or her actions was not the sole cause of your bike crash. The issue of causation is often challenged in case of a crash by the defendants.
Causation
In motor vehicle-related cases, the plaintiff must prove an causal link between breach of the defendant and their injuries. For instance, if a plaintiff sustained a neck injury from a rear-end collision and his or her lawyer would argue that the collision was the cause of the injury. Other factors that are needed in causing the collision like being in a stationary car, are not culpable and will not affect the jury's determination of the liability.
It can be difficult to establish a causal connection between a negligent act and the plaintiff's psychological problems. The reality that the plaintiff experienced a an uneasy childhood, a bad relationship with their parents, used alcohol and drugs, or suffered previous unemployment may have some influence on the severity the psychological problems he or suffers from following an accident, however, the courts typically consider these factors as part of the circumstances that led to the accident from which the plaintiff's injury was triggered, not as a separate reason for the injuries.

Damages
The damages that a plaintiff may recover in a motor vehicle case include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages is any monetary expenses that can be easily added to calculate the sum of medical treatment, lost wages, property repairs, and even future financial losses, such as diminished earning capacity.
New York law also recognizes the right to seek non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering as well as loss of enjoyment of life, which cannot be reduced to a monetary amount. The damages must be proven by a wide array of evidence, including depositions from family members and friends of the plaintiff medical records, as well as other expert witness testimony.
In cases where there are multiple defendants, courts will typically employ comparative fault rules to determine the amount of damages that should be divided between them. The jury must determine the percentage of blame each defendant carries for the incident and then divide the total damages awarded by the percentage. New York law however, does not allow this. 1602 disqualifies vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in cases where injuries are sustained by drivers of cars or trucks. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive use is applicable is a bit nebulous, and typically only a clear showing that the owner was explicitly denied permission to operate the vehicle will overcome it.
