Many times, California car accidents will result in injuries or worse and the driver who is found to be at fault is not arrested, as that driver had simply made a mistake. However, when a driver is allegedly guilty of criminal conduct that leads to an accident that causes serious injuries, that driver will be arrested, as was the case with a driver who caused a San Jose car accident over the weekend that seriously injured three people.

Many times, these costs are at least temporarily incurred by the person or people who have been injured, but few studies have taken a close look at just how much car accidents cost drivers in the United States. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recently published a study of these national costs, and the numbers are nothing short of staggering.

Hit-and-run accidents occur with alarming regularity, and when they do the fact that the driver flees the scene only adds several layers of difficulty to the situation. What's worse is that most of the time, these drivers are eventually identified and apprehended, which was the case with a 2009 Saratoga hit-and-run accident that injured one man on a bicycle and left his girlfriend with permanent brain damage. The judge accepted guilty plea from the defendant last week.

People who evade police are likely to face significant criminal penalties. If this evasion leads to injuries to anyone who was not involved with the incident that first occurred, that person could also face significant civil liability. Such was the case with a police chase that ended in Vacaville last night that led to one person being injured simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The driver who attempted to evade police in the first place was arrested.

For many years, parents and adults thought it was responsible to allow minors to consume alcohol at their homes and to keep them there in order to protect them from problems that could arise if they engaged in this conduct somewhere else.
