How Can Traffic Cams Affect the Outcome of Your Personal Injury Claim?

Car accidents can happen in the blink of an eye, and in the wake of a crash, it can be challenging to recall essential details. If your accident occurred near an intersection, a traffic camera may have captured video of your accident. This footage can provide objective evidence about the circumstances surrounding your accident and may strengthen your claim for compensation for your injuries and other losses.

Obtaining traffic cam footage can be a complex process and difficult to accomplish on your own. The skilled attorneys at the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP have extensive experience obtaining video evidence for accident victims in New York and building solid claims on their behalf. When you choose us, we will leave no stone unturned as we investigate your case and fight for the maximum amount of compensation available on your behalf. 

Can Traffic Cam Footage Strengthen My Personal Injury Claim?

To pursue a successful personal injury claim, your attorney must establish that the other party acted negligently and caused your injuries. Unbiased sources of evidence, such as traffic cameras, can clarify the cause of your accident and who may be at fault. Even if the recording does not show the exact moment of impact, it may still shed helpful light on the moments before the collision or the scene of the aftermath. 

However, it is vital to remember that the presence of a camera at the scene does not guarantee that footage of your accident was recorded or stored. An experienced car accident attorney can help you collect video footage and other relevant evidence to establish liability and pursue the justice you deserve. 

Obtaining Traffic Cam Footage After a New York Car Accident

After being injured in a car accident, it is essential to act quickly to increase your chances of obtaining any possible traffic cam footage. The process of accessing traffic cam footage can be legally complex, and you will likely need the skills and assistance of a seasoned car accident attorney. Often, surveillance footage is deleted every 72 hours. Your attorney can act promptly to secure traffic cam footage as well as other potential sources of video evidence, including the following:

  • Personal videos from tourists or residents that happened to capture your collision
  • Private traffic cameras installed by news outlets to observe and report on traffic conditions
  • Dash cams from busses, police cars, or personal vehicles
  • Security cameras installed at businesses such as gas stations or retail stores

When you partner with a skilled attorney from the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP we will thoroughly investigate every detail of your case to determine possible sources of video footage and other key evidence to support your claim.
