Causes of car accidents in Imperial, MO frequently result from drunk driving, reckless or careless driving, auto defects, distracted driving, rear-end crashes, among many other causes.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol records crash circumstances when documenting car accidents in reports and analyze the data using the Statistical Analysis Center.
Statistics are provided for the following six (6) factors in car accidents:
Alcohol involvement
Speed involvement
Young driver
Mature driver
Commercial vehicle
Motorcycle involved
According to the most recent data analysis, the biggest factors of car accidents were speed and the age of the driver – which includes drivers under the age of 21 and over the age of 55.
End Distracted Driving in Imperial
One of the most common causes of car accidents in Imperial, MO is distracted driving.
There are many steps that can be taken to avoid Imperial car accidents and help to protect drivers on the road.
A few easy, and seemingly obvious, methods include:
Put your phone down
Keep your eyes on the road
Obey the speed limit
Take caution when driving through a construction zone
At TorHoerman Law, we are doing our part to combat the issue head-on by promoting our End Distracted Driving campaign and spreading the word about the dangers of driving distracted.
Lawmakers in the state are also beginning to take action to combat this deadly trend of distracted driving.
According to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, cell-phone related crashes are up 35% since 2014, and Missouri officials want to do something about it.
Legislators have introduced eight separate measures to limit cell phone use while driving, but most drivers can still use the devices without penalty.
Current laws in place ban the use of cell phones for drivers under 21 and commercial motor vehicles, but the law is still one of the most relaxed in the country – whereas many other states ban distracted driving entirely.
Six measures have been introduced by elected officials with hopes that one will pass to restrict the use of cell phones while driving and, in turn, make the roadways in St. Louis, and the State of Missouri, safer for everyone!
The most common head and brain injuries from car accidents include concussions, closed head injuries, penetrating head injury, subdural hematoma, epidural hematoma, and diffuse axonal injury.
Car accidents can also cause brain damage or a traumatic head injury.
2. Laceration and Avulsion
Sometimes, car accident victims can suffer injuries due to laceration or avulsion.
Lacerations are the tearing of tissue due to blunt force, and can cause serious bleeding and pain.
Avulsion injuries occur when a large amount of tissue is torn off the body – if they are not treated properly, avulsion injuries can cause serious damage.
3. Neck and Back Injuries
Car accidents can cause serious neck and back injuries.
These injuries include sprains, strains, herniated discs, fractures, contusions, or compression injuries.
Neck and back injuries can also cause long-term disability, paralysis, or death.
4. Broken Bones
Almost every bone in the body can be broken in a car accident.
Though it is possible to break your legs or arms by driving into a pothole, car accidents typically cause more complicated and life-threatening types of broken bones.
In car accidents, it is possible to break ribs, sternums, and pelvic bones.
5. Burns
Car accidents can cause burns from the car’s airbags or from a fire that might erupt after the accident.
Burn injuries include both first-degree and second-degree burns, as well as burns to your clothes or other materials.
6. Spinal Injuries
Although less common than head and brain injuries, car accidents can still cause serious damage to the spine.
Injuries include injuries to the vertebrae, herniated discs, compression fractures, and spinal cord injuries.
The site of the car accident can also cause potentially serious problems, such as paralysis.
7. Soft Tissue Injuries
Car accidents can cause injuries to soft tissue, including injuries to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and skin.
Soft tissue injuries are common in car accidents, though they are typically not as serious as bone fractures, but soft tissue injuries are not negligible.
They can cause serious swelling, pain, and long-term injuries.
Whether you suffered a major injury, such as those listed above, or a more minor injury – it is important that you mitigate those injuries.
Seek medical assistance as soon as possible after your accident, no matter how minor your injuries seem.
This is an incredibly important step if you decide to file a Imperial car accident lawsuit!
If you or a loved one has been involved in a car accident in Imperial, MO – you may be entitled to compensation for the losses you incurred through legal action.

What should I do if I am involved in a car accident in Imperial, MO?
If you are involved in a car accident in Imperial (MO), you should take the following four (4) steps:
1. Call 911
2. Move Your Car to the Shoulder (if possible)
If there are no injuries and your car is drivable – move your car to the shoulder or a nearby parking lot especially if the accident is blocking traffic.
Make sure to turn your hazard lights on as a precaution.
3. Seek Proper Medical Treatment
4. Contact a Personal Injury Attorney
Contact an experienced personal injury attorney, such as the Imperial car accident attorneys at TorHoerman Law!
For most motor vehicle accidents in Imperial, reports are not required.
But if the following criteria apply, you will need to file an accident report:
The accident occurred in Missouri
The accident happened within the last 12 months
One, or more, of the drivers did not have insurance.
Your auto insurer is required to include uninsured motorist coverage equal to your bodily personal injury liability coverage to provide coverage if the at-fault driver is not insured.
Is a lawsuit necessary after a Imperial car accident?
Many Imperial car accident victims wonder whether they should file a lawsuit after their incident.
The answer to this question, like most legal questions, is that it depends.
Every person who is injured by another’s negligence, or other wrongful act should meet with a Imperial personal injury lawyer to discuss whether they have a case.
The fact that the incident occurred indicates that there was some wrong doing involved, whether it be actions or omissions.
Sometimes people are confused about the difference between an action and an omission.
Actions are things we can do – omissions occur when we fail to act.
If a person is walking along a sidewalk and another person falls into them, there is an action resulting in an injury.
If that same person has the opportunity to warn that person of the danger ahead and they choose not to, that is an omission.
An experienced Imperial personal injury attorney, like the attorneys at TorHoerman Law, can help answer whatever questions a victim of a car accident may have about their specific case!
What is the process of filing a Imperial car accident claim?
After hiring a lawyer, you should familiarize yourself with the civil litigation process so that you know what to expect of your car accident lawsuit.
A Imperial car accident attorney’s process of filing a claim includes three (3) steps:
1. Gathering Evidence
Your Imperial auto accident lawyer will begin gathering evidence, including any evidence you have been able to collect, to strengthen your car accident claims.
2. Assessing Damages
They will then assess the damages that you incurred as a result of your accident, to determine an appropriate amount of compensation.
3. Proving Liability
As your Imperial car accident lawyer navigates the complex legal process, they will fight to gain you compensation through a settlement or verdict.
Oftentimes, a pretrial settlement is the preferred outcome of a car accident cases because it alleviates the plaintiff of having to try their case in court.
While your attorney fights for you in the court to gain you financial recovery, your main job is to focus on the most important thing – your own physical and emotional recovery!
At TorHoerman Law, we believe that if we continue to focus on the people that we represent, and continue to be true to the people that we are – justice will always be served.
