Some Accidents Result From Dangerous Roads And Highways
Connecticut and New York highways and roads are dangerous places. Not only do you have to drive defensively to avoid car accidents, the road itself may present unforeseen hazards.
Crowded and congested roadways in the Stamford, Connecticut, area lead to many car accidents and truck accidents. Interstate 95 runs through downtown Stamford, and Route 1 is an alternate route when I-95 gets backed up. The southbound lanes of the Merritt Parkway are most congested in the morning, while the northbound lanes are crowded after work, with poor highway lighting.

Injuries From Accidents On Dangerous Roads And Highways
At the Law Office of Toby M. Schaffer, we help clients recover compensation for injuries caused by negligence. Dangerous roads and highways are far more common in New York and Connecticut than any of us would like, causing accidents with grave injuries.
Defective design on city, county and state highways plays an important role in contributing to car accidents, including roads with no shoulders, hairpin curves and no guardrails. Additional safety concerns are raised with:
- Poor highway maintenance, including potholes and uneven roadway surfaces
- Soft shoulders, contributing to one-car accidents
- Inadequate lighting or signage
- Poorly marked construction zones
