Oregon Auto Negligence Law Overview:

Oregon law refers to the legal system and statutes of the state of Oregon, United States. It encompasses various areas of law, including criminal law, civil law, family law, property law, and more.

Auto negligence law deals with legal liability arising from accidents involving motor vehicles. It typically defines when a driver is considered negligent and liable for damages caused by an accident.

If you're interested in learning more about auto negligence law in Oregon, here are some specific areas you could explore:

Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 811: This section of the ORS deals with traffic regulations and vehicle operation, including rules for safe driving and penalties for traffic violations.
Comparative negligence: Oregon operates under a modified comparative negligence system. This means that a plaintiff in a negligence lawsuit can still recover damages even if they were partially at fault for the accident, as long as their percentage of fault is less than that of the other party.
Types of auto negligence claims: In Oregon, common auto negligence claims include collisions, hit-and-run accidents, distracted driving accidents, drunk driving accidents, and pedestrian accidents. Each type of claim will have its own specific legal considerations.
