Reckless Driving Vs. Bad Driving

What is reckless driving? Reckless driving is defined under Florida law as driving “any vehicle in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property”. Speeding excessively, racing, tailgating, weaving in and out of lanes, fleeing law enforcement, and more all fall under the umbrella of reckless driving. It’s important to note that reckless driving is not only dangerous, but also illegal; unlike just bad driving, which can surely cause accidents and injuries as well, reckless drivers may face fines and jail time. For example, going 55 in a 45 can be dangerous, but going 100 in a 45 is reckless. If you’ve been hit by a reckless driver, they may be punished by the law, but they can also be held civilly liable for your injuries, meaning that you can legally seek financial restitution for the pain, suffering, medical bills, and lost wages that you incurred as a result.

You Deserve Compensation, And We Can Help You Get It.

Because of the nature of reckless driving crashes, injuries sustained in these types of wrecks tend to be severe. Being injured by a reckless driver can be not only physically and emotionally devastating, but also financially burdensome; depending on the specific circumstances of your crash, a person’s decision to drive without regard for your safety could cost you potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars! You may incur expenses for things like:

• ambulatory transport
• imaging tests (X-rays, MRIs, etc.)
• bloodwork & transfusions
• surgeries
• hospitalization
• rehabilitation
• chiropractic care
• physical therapy
• mental health counseling
• medications
• copays
• deductibles
• medical devices
• specialized care
• emergency dental work & subsequent dental care
• lost wages (for the time you have to take off work while you heal)
• and more.

Health insurance may cover some of these costs, but you shouldn’t have to pay anything out of your own pocket if you didn’t contribute to the crash. The insurance company of the reckless driver, or your own insurance company (if the reckless driver was uninsured) should pay you. However, insurance companies are more concerned with protecting their bottom lines than they are with your rights, and so they may be unwilling to compensate you fairly. Our North Tampa reckless driving accident injury lawyers can advocate for you to recover what your injuries are truly worth!

During your free consultation, we will take the time to listen to your story, answer your questions, and explain your options. Our compassionate legal team will work to set gather evidence and pertinent documentation, and even connect you with quality medical care or financial aid if needed; then we will build a strong case for maximum compensation. We’ll negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf, but if a fair settlement can’t be reached, our aggressive attorneys aren’t afraid to go to trial in order to win!

Why North Tampa?

North Tampa is a risky place for reckless driving, simply because there are a lot of people on the roads; between all of the commuter students who drive to and from the University of South Florida, to drivers who are coming home from work and sitting in traffic on the 275, to the tourists and Busch Gardens goers who are driving back to their homes or hotels, the likelihood of you encountering a reckless driver may be higher than in other parts of Florida. We first opened a Tampa office in 1984, and have since expanded to North Tampa and beyond in order to make our representation more accessible to injured accident victims. There is a statute of limitations on reckless driving cases.
