Melbourne Car Accident Attorneys
Home to attractions such as Brevard Zoo, Space Coast Stadium, The Liberty Bell Memorial Museum, Foosaner Art Museum, and two world-class golf resorts, the city of Melbourne, Florida. has something for everyone. Their historic downtown area provides ever increasing entertainment options and unique retail choices and their impressive Parks & Recreation Department (which has established more than 30 parks across the city) make the city one of the best places in Florida to live, work and raise a family.

However, amongst all the amusement and opportunities provided by the city of Melbourne and other communities surrounding the greater Orlando area are several automobile and other types of dangerous accidents each and every day. While every auto accident is different, resulting in differing levels of damages, injuries and losses, most auto accidents are caused by another driver's negligence or reckless behavior. Common acts of negligence that lead to car accidents include:
- Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Texting and other forms of distracted driving
- Driving while fatigued
- Aggressive driving behaviors
- Speeding, failing to yield, and violating other traffic laws
- Violating traffic signals
- Failing to properly maintain a vehicle
- Failing to yield the right of way
- Following too closely behind a vehicle
- Running a stop light or stop sign
- Unsafe lane changes
