Dangerous California Road Conditions Cause Dangerous Intersection Injuries
Improperly constructed roads and improperly designed highways and freeways contribute to thousands of accidents each year, in California and nationally. We deserve to have California roadways that are safe and have been properly maintained. When negligent design, construction, or maintenance results in an unsafe roadway or dangerous intersection that causes an accident, the state, county, city, or municipality responsible for the roadway, may be liable for your damages. The cause of a motor vehicle accident is not always black and white. The San Jose unsafe roadway attorney at Choulos, Choulos, & Wyle look beyond the oversimplified collision factors in the police report. CCW conducts their own investigation, going deeper to uncover if another driver, or a dangerous road, or a defective product caused or contributed to an accident or to any injuries.

Yes, public entities have a legal obligation to design and maintain public roads so that they are reasonably safe for the public. If an accident is directly caused by a design flaw, a severe lack of maintenance, hidden hazards, or missing signage on a city street or highway, you can pursue an injury claim against the government agency responsible for that roadway.
Road defect cases are significantly more complicated than standard driver-vs-driver insurance claims because they require establishing that a public entity or contractor had notice of the hazard and failed to fix it. Additionally, bringing a claim against a city, county, or state agency in Northern California involves navigating incredibly strict procedural rules and significantly shorter government deadlines than standard personal injury lawsuits.
Our legal team has decades of experience uncovering structural and maintenance failures that cause major traffic collisions. We routinely handle cases involving dangerous road conditions such as poorly marked construction zones, missing or hidden traffic signs, severe potholes, uneven pavement surfaces, inadequate street lighting, and design defects like blind curves or unsafe lane configurations.
