Negligence in a car accident may be demonstrated in several different ways, such as driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs, speeding, driving aggressively, not obeying traffic signals, and more. When negligent behavior causes a car accident and someone is injured, the law provides a mechanism for the injured person to recover damages by filing a personal injury claim. Under New Jersey’s statute of limitations, injured victims have two years from the time of the car accident to file a claim in the state’s civil courts.
