Who Is Liable for Phoenix Truck Accidents Involving Dangerous Roadways?

The question of liability is an important one for victims injured in trucking accidents involving dangerous roadways. In some cases, a court may decide that the truck driver is at fault because he or she ought to have been aware of the dangerous conditions and taken precautions. A court might determine, for instance, that the driver should have known that a particular stretch of highway was dangerous or that construction was taking place in a specific area. In other cases, though, the body in charge of maintaining and constructing roads may be held accountable. There must be strong evidence that the dangerous roadway caused or directly contributed to the accident.

What Is Considered a Dangerous Roadway?

When the city, county or state authorities responsible for ensuring that roads and highways are safe neglect to perform their duties adequately, dangerous roadways are often the result. Dangerous roadways can be caused by a faulty design, inadequate or inappropriate signage or by insufficient road maintenance. Design flaws that can result in an unsafe roadway include merging lanes that are too short, improper lane widths and sharp curves. Obstructed signage, poor warning signs in construction zones, and defective signs and signals can all render roads unsafe. Large potholes and debris lying on roadways may also be factors in dangerous roadway cases.
