In Washington State, it is illegal for a motorist to cross into the opposite lane when it is occupied by a car, bicycle or pedestrian. If a driver’s negligence or recklessness causes serious injuries, the injured victim could file a personal injury claim against the driver seeking compensation. In such cases, victims could seek compensation to cover medical expenses, loss of earnings, cost of hospitalization, rehabilitation, physical therapy or even long-term care in case of catastrophic injuries.
