Motor Vehicle Litigation
A lawsuit is required when the liability is being contested. The Defendant will then have the opportunity to respond to the complaint.
New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that should a jury find that you are responsible for causing the accident the damages awarded will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. There is a slight exception to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes owners of vehicles that are rented or leased to minors.
Duty of Care
In a negligence lawsuit the plaintiff must show that the defendant was obligated to act with reasonable care. Almost everybody owes this duty to everyone else, however those who are behind the wheel of a motor vehicle are obligated to others in their area of operation. This includes ensuring that they do not cause accidents in motor vehicles.
Courtrooms compare an individual's actions with what a normal person would do under similar circumstances to establish what is an acceptable standard of care. In cases of medical malpractice expert witnesses are typically required. Experts who have a greater understanding of the field could be held to a greater standard of care.
A person's breach of their duty of care can cause injury to a victim or their property. The victim then has to show that the defendant violated their duty and caused the injury or damages they sustained. Proving causation is a critical aspect of any negligence case which involves taking into consideration both the real reason for the injury or damages as well as the cause of the damage or injury.

Breach of Duty

A breach of duty is when the actions of the person who is at fault are insufficient to what a normal person would do under similar circumstances.
For example, a doctor has several professional obligations to his patients stemming from state law and licensing boards. Drivers are required to care for other drivers as well as pedestrians, and to obey traffic laws. Any driver who fails to adhere to this obligation and causes an accident is accountable for the injuries of the victim.

The plaintiff must also prove that the defendant's breach of duty was the proximate cause of the injuries. This can be more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty or breach. For instance the defendant could have run a red light but the action was not the sole reason for your bicycle crash. The issue of causation is often challenged in case of a crash by the defendants.
Causation

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, like suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of life cannot be reduced to cash. However these damages must be established to exist with the help of extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony of the plaintiff's close friends and family members medical records, motor vehicle lawsuit deposition testimony, and other expert witness testimony.
In the event of multiple defendants, courts typically use the comparative fault rule to determine the amount of total damages to be divided between them. The jury must determine the degree of fault each defendant was responsible for the accident and to then divide the total damages award by that percentage of fault. New York law however, does not allow for this. 1602 exempts owners of vehicles from the rule of comparative negligence in cases where injuries are sustained by drivers of cars or trucks.
