Car Accidents at a Kwik Trip Gas Station*

Gas stations are often crowded and busy. Patrons may not concentrate on what they are doing and may be more interested in buying themselves a coffee or filling their vehicle than looking out for others around them.

If you are hit in your vehicle, you might be able to recover any unexpected costs by filing a personal injury claim against the party or parties at fault with the help of a personal injury attorney.

It’s unfortunately just when some customers are making too quick a trip that they are involved in an accident at a gas station.

Common Car Crash Examples

Most accidents at a gas station or outside a gas station associated store are caused by bad driving decisions. All drivers need to have a sharp look out when they are entering a gas station, exiting it, parking, or moving between the fuel pumps.

Because most vehicles are not moving at speed, car crashes may not be as serious as they are out on the open road. However, head on collisions with a distracted or intoxicated driver in the gas station forecourt can still cause significant damage to your vehicle and result in serious injuries to you and any other occupants as well.

Help For Your PI Claim

It is certainly worth considering making a personal injury claim if you have been injured by a distracted or reckless driver at a gas station, but it can be harder than you might think. Insurers will go out of their way to distance themselves from paying compensation and may and suggest that you were at least partly to blame yourself, even if you think that the situation was clear cut.

This is no time to negotiate all on your own. Talk to a personal injury attorney as soon as you are able to do so and obtain any evidence and witnesses that can help to support your claim for fair and adequate compensation.
