This article describes how intersection cameras work and their role in car accident cases as well as why hiring a personal injury attorney could make all of the difference when it comes to outcomes.

 

What are intersection traffic light cameras?

You might have seen cameras at intersections that sit atop poles to monitor constant streams of traffic. These cameras serve multiple functions, from monitoring traffic flows and enforcement of red-light violations to gathering evidence of accidents - often as part of an overall network designed to enhance road safety.

Real-time footage captured from such cameras can provide clear evidence as to who caused an accident when there is any disagreement over its cause, for instance by showing who ran through a stop sign through overspeeding or without yielding.

 

How can intersection camera recordings help with accident claims?

Evidence plays an integral part in personal injury cases and intersection camera footage could prove immensely helpful in supporting it. By showing exactly how an accident unfolded, this footage could result in an instant positive impact on your claim.

  • Determining Fault
  • Providing Clear Evidence
  • Support for Insurance Claims
  • Helping in Court

 

How can I access footage from an intersection camera?

Locations where footage captured by intersection cameras is accessible depend on state and city. You can gain access by:

  • Contact Local Authorities
  • Requesting Through an Attorney
  • File a Public Records Request

 

Why hiring a personal injury attorney can be beneficial?

Hiring a personal injury attorney is invaluable when recovering from the after-effects of a car accident, here's why hiring one is necessary:

  • Expertise in Navigating Legal Complexities
  • Access to Resources
  • Maximizing Compensation
  • Negotiating with Insurance Companies

 

When is it wise to hire an attorney?
