Some Causes of Car Accidents in Parking Lots and Drive-Thru’s

Car accidents are pretty common in parking lots and drive-thru’s for a few reasons. Consider the following points:

  • Distracted driving in the drive-thru line (since the wait is often very long, drivers become distracted using devices or with other things in the car)
  • Following too closely or starting/stopping too abruptly in the drive-thru lane
  • Driving too fast in the parking lot (speeding to get a parking spot)
  • Driving too aggressively in the parking lot
  • Failing to yield both in the parking lot and the drive-thru line

Some Causes of Pedestrian Accidents in Parking Lots and Drive Thru’s

Whether people are arriving to the restaurant on-foot or they are parking their cars and walking into the restaurant, they are likely to have to walk near cars to get into the restaurant.

Pedestrian accidents can be caused by the following:

  • Speeding drivers
  • Distracted drivers
  • Drivers that fail to yield
  • Distracted pedestrians

Possible Car Accident and Pedestrian Accident Injuries

Although every situation is different, anyone who suffers a car accident or pedestrian accident on the premises of Chick-Fil-A can potentially suffer significant harm, including but not limited to the following:

  • Head injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Neck injuries
  • Back injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Knee injuries
  • Hip injuries
  • Fractures
  • Nerve damage

Although the injuries listed above might seem only minor, some of the injuries suffered could potentially be fatal. Regardless of the harm that you or a member of your family suffered, you might have grounds to file a lawsuit – you could sue and possibly recover monetary compensation.

About Your Right to Sue

Can you sue Chick Fil A for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered on their premises? Yes – you could be eligible to file a lawsuit against Chick-Fil-A. Your right to sue is based on the concept of premise liability – that is, all property owners have a duty of care towards their guests. Property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe for their guests, meaning that they must identify and address any hazards present in order to avoid incidents. When property owners fail to do this, they are breaching their duty of care, and they are putting their guests at risk of suffering harm. Whenever a guest is injured directly because of a breached duty of care, the property owner could be liable.

If the accident that you suffered was a direct result of a breached duty of care – or the negligent actions of a property owner – then the property owner will be liable. This means that victims and their families could sue. In other words, if you were injured on the premises of a Chick-Fil-A, you could sue Chick-Fil-A for the harm that you suffered.

For more information about your right to sue, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our firm today.

Recovering Compensation

Base on the details of your claim, you could be eligible to recover monetary compensation for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered. In fact, with the help of a Chick-Fil-A accident attorney, you could recover a significant amount of compensation for the harm resulting from the incident on Chick Fil A premises. What could you recover? Some of the categories of compensation that you could potentially recover could include the following:

  • Medical costs
  • Lost income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of consortium
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • Property damages
  • Punitive damages
  • Legal expenses

The specific type and amount of compensation that you could be eligible to receive will always be based on the details surrounding your claim. Therefore, the best thing that you could do is to seek legal assistance for more information about the potential recovery for your Chick Fil A accident lawsuit. When you allow the experts at our firm to handle your claim, you can trust that our attorneys will do everything possible to get you the highest settlement possible.

A Quick Review of Chick-Fil-A’s Insurance Policy

Most large fast-food chains carry significant insurance policies that cover any incidents that occur on their premises. Chick-Fil-A carries a $200,000,000 million dollar policy that could apply when a car accident or pedestrian accident results in injuries to anyone on their premises. Of course, this doesn’t guarantee that you will get a $200 million settlement if you file an accident claim against Chick-Fil-A. However, because they have such a high-value policy, injury claims are not limited by low policy limits, and claimants can recover the full value of their claims. If you would like to learn more about this insurance policy, do not hesitate to contact our attorneys as soon as possible.

What Should You Do?

If you or a member of your family suffered harm in a Chick Fil A pedestrian accident or auto accident either in the parking lot or drive thru line, there are a number of things that you should do prepare to take action against the fast-food restaurant. Consider the following recommendations:

  • Take photos of the entire scene of the accident
  • Take photos of all injuries resulting from the accident
  • File an accident report with the manager and the property owner
  • Seek medical care for the harm that you suffered
  • Speak to witnesses to your accident and collect their contact information
  • Gather all medical records relevant to the harm resulting from the incident
  • Gather records of lost income
  • Gather records of property damage

File Your Injury Claim On Time

All personal injury claims, including car accidents and pedestrian accidents, are subject to a statute of limitations. A statute of limitations determines the total length of time that claimants will have to file their injury claims. If claimants fail to file their claims on time, they could lose their right to sue entirely. So, how long do you have to sue? In California, all personal injury claims are subject to a two-year statue of limitations; this means that claimants only have two years to sue.
