Queens NY is home to over 2.2 million people and the DMV estimates that about 15% of all drivers are uninsured. There is a law in New York that states that all registered drivers must have certain forms of basic insurance or else their car registration can be revoked. Included in this is uninsured and underinsured coverage, with a minimum amount being 25k per driver and 50k per accident. The intention of this law is to help protect the insured drivers from those driving unins...ured since there is no insurance policy on the uninsured vehicle that can assist in paying for the accident. Many times though the insured driver soon realizes an unfortunate truth. Insurance companies are not easy to deal with. When is this relevant? Well since New York is a no-fault state, for basic, minor accidents it won’t be very relevant. No-fault means that the driver’s own insurance company handles their driver since no driver is at fault. if you have the minimum coverage of 25k and 50k then quite easily the damages from the accident can outpace the coverage. Costs for an accident include auto repair, medical bills, and lost wages. It is at this point typically that the other driver’s insurance would payout if you can prove it was caused by them, to cover the additional expenses. But since the second driver, in this case, is not insured, there are alternative ways of recovering funds. This is where an experienced auto accident attorney can help. Accidents of this nature can be so difficult because drivers without insurance are more likely to leave the scene of the accident. Additionally proving fault in general, even if you know the second party can be extremely difficult. Obtaining a personal injury lawsuit might be a choice. It is always important after an accident to: Gather evidence like pictures See if any eyewitnesses were there Gather names and numbers Seek medical attention A Queens Personal injury attorneys who specialize in auto accident claims like Ribowsky Law have handled countless auto accident cases specifically dealing with uninsured claims.

This is what led to the cr...Continue reading

Slippery roads and poor visibility caused by a winter storm over the weekend appear to be responsible for a stack of several cars on Bronx River Drive near the Woodlawn/Norwood border that injured eight people, leaving one person seriously injured. The afternoon incident is one of the most major car accidents in the Bronx in recent months. Police said that just after 1:30 p.m. on January 18, police were inundated with crash cries on the south side of the Bronx River promenade..., between East Street 233 and East Gun Hill Road. The NYPD reported that 15 cars were involved, but a local press team had a video of their tally, which suggested up to 20 cars were involved. The parkway was reopened at 7 p.m. EMS reported that eight people had been transported to hospitals in the region, including one victim who was reported to be in serious condition. Police, firefighters, and paramedics identified, treated, and secured those being helped while people were warm in their cars or on the closed road as they waited for hours for tow trucks to remove them. Two accident victims were seen assembling in the middle of the closed lane to the south, before apparently heading towards their mutilated car, with the bumper hanging from the vehicle. City records show that the Bronx side of the Bronx River Parkway, which also spans Westchester County, suffered 97 car accidents in 2019, including one that injured six people on the 14 August 2019, the most injuries for a car accident on the parkway that year. Speed was to blame for that incident. According to the National Weather Service, only an inch of snow fell in the Bronx, but visibility at the time of the accident was reduced to 1/4 mile.
