St Petersburg Personal Injury Attorneys McQuaid & Douglas explains if you do or do not have a case when hitting an animal with your vehicle and getting hurt.
Hey Sean, if I hit an animal and get hurt, do I have a case? Actually, no. And I get this call a lot, where someone will hit a deer and get injured, or maybe they'll see an animal on the road, they'll swerve away, hit another car, or swerve off the road into a tree and get hurt. But an animal crossing the road and you hit it, or it causes an accident, is considered an act of God. It is not negligence. And without negligence, Your car insurance does not kick in for that type of coverage.
