Rear-End Collision Due to Following Too Closely

Case Study

Case Overview

Our client was driving when the vehicle in front of her stopped abruptly. She reacted appropriately, stopping in time to avoid a collision. However, the defendant, who was traveling behind our client, failed to maintain a safe following distance and was unable to stop in time, resulting in a rear-end collision. Police responded to the scene, and after assessing the situation, the defendant was cited for following too closely, which directly contributed to the crash. The collision caused damage to our client’s vehicle and may have resulted in additional repercussions, highlighting the importance of maintaining a safe following distance to prevent accidents.
