Even if you are a safe driver and do everything that you possibly can to operate your motor vehicle responsibly, you are still vulnerable to a number of factors beyond your control. In many cases, accidents happen because of another driver’s actions, but they can also arise when municipal agencies are negligent in the design, building, or maintenance of roadways. Highway defects can endanger the safety of all motorists.
