Negligence
We will also need to establish negligence under Ohio law. This means we will need to establish the driver owed you a legal duty of care, breached the duty of care, this breach caused the accident, and you suffered actual damages from this accident.
This could be a driver failing to follow a traffic law. For example, a driver has a legal duty to stop at a red light. If they fail to uphold this duty, they have breached it. And if running the red light caused your crash, this is causation. Medical bills are considered damages.
