Can I Be Compensated After a Sun Glare Auto Accident?

While most drivers know they shouldn’t look directly into the sun, it can sometimes be unavoidable during sunrise and sunset. Unfortunately, the sun can temporarily blind drivers and cause them to crash into other vehicles. Since sun glare accidents are caused by the driver being unable to see, they often cannot take action to mitigate the damage from the collision and may cause severe injuries. Although no one can control the sun, Florida drivers are expected to take precautions against sun glare and may be held liable if an accident occurs.

• Failing to wear sunglasses on a sunny day
• Failing to slow down and drive defensively when their vision is impaired
• Driving while fatigued during sunrise and sunset hours
• Failing to clean their windshield, exacerbating sun glare
