Driving on a suspended during accident
I was rear ended while driving on a suspended license. The officer smelled alcohol on the man's breath but he was not given a Breathalyzer or a citation. I received life threatening injuries. Do I have a case against the police as well? Also this person was self insured, so what does that mean for my case I'm pursuing against the driver?
Re: Personal Injury case- Driving on a suspended during accident
You should contact a Rhode Island (RI) personal Injury law attorney / lawyer . The fact that you were driving on a suspended license should be irrelevant to a potential claim for damages. The fact that your license was suspended does not prevent you from pursuing damages for your injury . Driving on a suspended license was not a cause of the accident.
I doubt that you have a claim against the police for not arresting him. However, you should seriously consider pursuing a personal injury claim against the person liable for the accident.
It appears that he was clearly negligent becuase his automobile rear ended your vehicle. It sounds like your injuries were very serious. Please contact me so that we can discuss your personal injury claim.
