Types of Car Accidents in Passaic, New Jersey

The injuries you suffer often depend on the type of accident you were involved in. Common types of collisions include:

  • Head-on collisions – Often lead to severe and life-threatening injuries.

  • Rear-end accidents – Frequently result in whiplash and soft tissue injuries.

  • Side-impact (T-bone) collisions – Common at intersections and can cause serious bodily harm.

  • Roll-over accidents – Typically involve head, neck, and spinal injuries.

  • Sideswipe accidents – Occur between vehicles traveling in the same direction.

  • Blind spot accidents – Happen when a driver fails to see another vehicle while merging or changing lanes.

While the type of accident can suggest liability, every case requires a thorough investigation to determine fault accurately. Our experienced attorneys work with expert witnesses to build the strongest possible case.

Common Causes of Auto Accidents in New Jersey

Car accidents often occur due to:

Driver Error:

  • Drunk or intoxicated driving (alcohol, marijuana, prescription, or illegal drugs)

  • Distracted driving (texting, eating, adjusting controls)

  • Drowsy driving

  • Speeding or reckless driving

  • Decision errors (misjudging other vehicles or road conditions)

  • Recognition and performance errors (inattention, overcompensation)

Vehicle-Related Issues:

  • Tire or wheel failures

  • Brake malfunctions

  • Steering, suspension, transmission, or engine defects

  • Manufacturing defects

Environmental Factors:

  • Slick roads (ice, rain, debris)

  • Poor visibility (glare, view obstructions)

  • Inadequate signage or signal failures

In some cases, other factors—like pedestrian actions—can also contribute. Complex accident cases require experienced legal analysis to properly determine fault and maximize your recovery.


Why File a Personal Injury Claim After an Auto Accident?

After a car crash, insurance companies investigate the cause and often offer a settlement. However, insurance companies are businesses—and they maximize profits by minimizing payouts. Their initial settlement offer is rarely the full value of your claim.

You may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical bills (past, present, and future)

  • Property damage

  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity

  • Pain and suffering

  • Emotional distress

  • Loss of enjoyment of life

  • Future medical expenses

Without legal representation, you risk accepting a settlement far below what you deserve. Our team at Khorozian Law Group fights to ensure you receive the maximum possible compensation.
