Negligence in Transportation

Negligence in transportation refers to the failure of a driver or transportation provider to exercise reasonable care while operating a vehicle, leading to accidents or injuries. It involves actions like distracted driving, speeding, ignoring traffic laws, or failing to maintain the vehicle properly. When negligence occurs, it means the responsible party didn't act as a careful and prudent person would under similar circumstances, resulting in harm to others. Establishing negligence is key in determining liability and ensuring that appropriate measures are taken to prevent future accidents.
