Some Common Causes of Tesla Auto Accidents

Car accidents can happen for a number of reasons. Some of the common causes of auto accidents are listed below:

• Reckless driving (including driving fatigued, falling asleep behind the wheel, distracted driving, driving under the influence of drugs/alcohol, ignoring traffic signals, speeding, etc.)
• Auto defects (some possibly defects present in Tesla autos include software issues, mechanical malfunctions, brake issues, etc.)
• Dangerous road conditions (including poorly lit intersections, defective traffic lights, etc)

No matter the cause of the incident, all of the parties involved can potentially sustain injuries.

Common Car Crash Injuries

All car accidents, including accidents involving Tesla autos, can lead to a number of injuries, some of which can be significant. Some of the most common injuries resulting from auto accidents are listed below:

• Traumatismos craneoencefálicos y cerebrales
• Lesiones cervicales
• Lesiones de espalda
• Lesiones de hombro
• Lesiones medulares
• Lesiones de cadera
• Lesiones de rodilla
• Dislocaciones
• Fracturas
• Esguinces y distensiones
• Órganos perforados
• Quemaduras
• Salpicaduras
• Laceraciones
• Rasguños y contusiones

Without a doubt, some of these injuries appear to be only minor – in fact, many people involved in auto accidents are lucky enough to only suffer very minor injuries if any at all. However, car accident injuries can certainly be significant and require extensive medical treatment. Some injuries can even cause temporary or permanent disability. In severe cases, car accident injuries can be fatal. No matter of the injuries that you or a loved one sustained in an accident involving a Tesla auto, you should seek legal assistance as soon as possible; our auto accident lawyers can help you understand your legal options after your accident.

Liability – Is Tesla Liable for Accidents?

Who is liable for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered in an accident involving a Tesla? Well, liability for car accidents, no matter the type of vehicles involved is based on the details surrounding the incident. Specifically, the cause of the incident. For instance, if a negligent driver, a negligent transportation agency, or a negligent auto manufacturer cause or contribute to the accident, then they could be liable. Liability is based on the duty of care that these parties/entities owe to others (whether its other parties on the road, consumers, etc.). When these parties/entities breach their duty of care and an accident occurs, they can be sued.

So, is Tesla liable for accidents involving their autos? Generally, auto manufacturers do not have any liability for accidents if the accidents occurred due to the negligence of a driver or another entity. The only situation in which an auto manufacturer would be liable would be if a defect present in the auto directly caused the incident. However, there is a special circumstance that would make Tesla liable – only if the Tesla was covered by the Tesla Insurance coverage offered by the company. Tesla would be liable just like any other insurance company would be liable.

More information regarding Tesla’s insurance is discussed below.

About Tesla Auto Accident Insurance

Tesla offers their own insurance coverage. A lot of drivers have Tesla auto insurance. When Tesla owners purchase Tesla Insurance, they can make insurance payments, file claims, change their policies, and do essentially anything in regard to their policy on their phone directly through the Tesla app – which any Tesla driver will tell you that they use all the time. So for some, choosing Tesla Insurance is a no brainer.

Tesla’s insurance is offered through Crawford and Son’s (also known as Crawford). These insurance policies generally have coverage of $250,000 or more. If you were injured in an accident involving a Tesla, you could file a claim against the insurance company and potentially be awarded a significant settlement from Tesla. Of course, it will all depend on the details surrounding the incident (i.e., the injuries that you suffered) and the policy limit that applies.

How to File a Claim with Tesla Auto Insurance and Other Common Questions

Below we will address some of the most common questions that you might have after being involved in an accident with a Tesla auto:

How do I file a claim with them? What is the auto accident claims process for Tesla Insurance or Crawford? How can I file my injury claims with Tesla Insurance? The claim process is similar to that of any other insurance company. If you are the owner of the Tesla involved in the accident, things will be easier of course. You will be able to file your claim through the Tesla app. If you are not the Tesla owner, then you will have to submit your claim another way. Once you exchange information with the Tesla driver, you will get access to the number to call or website to visit to start your claims process. If you are unsure of how to proceed, the best option is to find a lawyer. Many people have trouble dealing with insurance companies as they refuse to take claimants seriously. Do not hesitate to look for a lawyer.

Do they cover hospital costs? Can I receive a Tesla Insurance Medical Payment? Just like any other insurance company, Tesla insurance does cover medical costs. Therefore, if you went to urgent care or had an ER visit after an accident, these ER or urgent care costs could be completely covered. If you paid these costs out of your own pocket, then you could certainly be reimbursed.

I was rear ended by a Tesla that has a Tesla Insurance Policy. Will I be covered? Rear-end car accidents are among the most common types of accidents. If the Tesla driver rear-ended your vehicle, and the driver has a valid policy with Tesla Insurance, then your accident will likely be covered.

I was hit by a Tesla that has Tesla Insurance. Will my accident be covered? If you were hit in any type of auto collision (head-on, t-bone, etc.) or even if you were struck as a pedestrian crossing the street, your accident could be covered by the Tesla insurance. For more information about whether your accident can be covered, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our law firm immediately.

Will Tesla UM/UIM coverage apply to my accident claim? If the at-fault party was uninsured or underinsured, you could be covered by your Tesla insurance policy. You will need to review your policy to confirm.

Do they have coverage through Tesla? You should never assume that all Tesla drivers have coverage with Tesla insurance, as they all have the option to find coverage elsewhere. If they are insured through another insurance company, you would need to file your claim with that insurance company instead of with Tesla.

Average Value of Auto Accident Claim against Tesla Insurance – How much do they payout?

How much are these claims typically worth? How much do they payout for accident injury claims? These are very common questions. As mentioned above, Tesla Insurance policies are typically $250,000 and higher. However, this policy amount does not determine the payout that you will receive. There are many details that come into play when determining the value of any accident claim, Tesla accident claims are no exceptions. Some of the most important details include the injuries resulting from the incident.

Although average values can certainly be misleading, it is possible to estimate case values based on the severity of the injuries suffered in the accident. For example, claims with only minor injuries are normally on the lowest side of the value scale. These claims are typically worth under $150,000. Claims with moderate injuries can be worth around $350,000 to $400,000. Claims with severe injuries can be worth around $750,000. In cases with very severe injuries, claims can be worth $1 million or more.

If you have questions about the value of your claim, the best thing that you can do is to discuss your claim with a lawyer. A lawyer with experience that handles cases against Tesla auto accident insurance coverage can help you better understand what your claim could be worth.

Time to Settle against Tesla Insurance

How long does it take to settle a case against Tesla? It can take anywhere from a few months to settle an auto accident claim with any insurance company. There are many factors that can affect the time that it takes to settle a case. In general, when things run smoothly from start to finish, a case can settle in as little as six months. However, even minor things like missed calls or delayed responses can hinder the process; these minor issues can result in a case settling in eight months, for instance. As other complications arise, the time that it takes to settle will be extended. Moderate issues can cause claims to take up to eighteen months to settle. Severe issues can cause claims to take two years or more to settle. Ultimately, it depends on the specific claim process.

Here at our law firm, we understand that waiting around for a settlement can be frustrating for all parties involved, so we are dedicated to reaching a fair settlement within a reasonable timeframe. We aim to settle our claims within six months, but we cannot guarantee that your claim will settle within this time.

Why is it taking so long to settle my case? If your case is taking too long to settle, it may be for a number of reasons. The most common reason that claims take long to settle is due to complications with the insurance company. Your legal team has to work through these complications and resolve them to move forward with the settlement process and eventually reach the settlement. Another possible reason is that your legal team is incompetent and not up to the task of handling your claim. If this is the case, switching lawyers is always an option.
