If the other driver is saying you are responsible for the accident, you do not need to give up. Even if you are partially at fault in your Clearwater truck accident, you could still receive compensation under Florida’s law concerning comparative negligence.
Florida Statutes § 768.81 allows you to sue an opposed party whose negligence contributed to your injuries, even if you also acted negligently and this negligence contributed to your accident. If you are awarded damages, your percentage of fault will be deducted from your award.
