A negligent driver has a duty of care but breaches that duty, and a reckless driver drives a vehicle “with blatant or shameless disregard for the safety and health of other people or property.” Filing a claim after these types of accidents will involve proving that the other driver was either negligent or recklessly driving and caused injuries that you suffered as a result of the accident. There are various elements that need to be met in order to prove your claim. It can be important to connect with an experienced attorney to help you navigate your claim.
