Car-Train Accidents Lawyers

Few accidents are as catastrophic as car-train accidents. Traveling at rates of speed in excess of 60 miles per hours and carrying payloads weighing in the tons, train and car collisions are most often highly destructive events resulting in serious injuries and death. The Federal Railway Administration estimates that there almost 3,000 accidents at railroad crossings each year, of which 300 are fatal train accidents.

While some of these accidents are due to negligence on the part of car drivers, many are also caused by train operators. Fatigue, drunkenness, cell phone usage, distractions, lack of training, and mechanical failure are just some of the factors that lead to many car-train accidents each year.

Whether you were the driver of the car, or a passenger in the car or train, you may be entitled to compensation for the injuries you suffered as a result of a car-train accident. Seek legal help today to learn more about your options.
