Memphis Uneven Pavement Attorneys

Car accidents are unfortunately very common and cause a devastating number of deaths and injuries every year. They cause mental anguish, physical suffering, and are often a financial burden. Often, car accidents occur due to mistakes caused by human error. They should not occur because of the negligence of defective roads, which are highly preventable. It is the responsibility of local municipalities, or in some cases construction companies, to make sure that physical road conditions are safe for driving. When they disregard this responsibility, lives are at risk.

Uneven pavement is a typical type of road defect. Driving on uneven pavements increases the chances that a driver will lose control of the vehicle or even tip over, leading to harm and damage for the individuals involved as well as their property. At the John Michael Bailey Injury Lawyers, we believe that nobody should have to suffer alone. We are devoted to guiding our clients through the often-stressful legal process while fighting to get them the compensation they deserve. It is important to hold those responsible for poor road conditions accountable for the results of their negligence, and that is what we aim to do.

Potential Causes of Uneven Pavement

Uneven pavement defects can happen anywhere and can be due to many causes. They can occur in construction zones that are not properly blocked off, where highway construction has not been completed, or areas that are susceptible to wear because of overuse or weathering. More potential causes of uneven pavements include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Improperly laid slabs
  • Erosion
  • Wear and tear
  • Lack of signs
  • Poor road maintenance

Driving on an uneven surface or switching lanes between uneven surfaces can be enough to cause a car accident. The shift in surface height can cause an unexpected change in tire direction, tire damage, a blowout, and even axel damage. Any of these circumstances, even if they only affect the driver for a moment, can cause an accident, injury, and damage. At the John Michael Bailey Injury Lawyers, we know how it feels to be involved in a car accident, and how frustrating it is when you know the accident was no fault of your own.
