What the Law Says

Washington’s rules of the road require drivers to keep their vehicle within a single lane and not move from it until it is safe to do so. When a vehicle leaves the roadway, investigators look at whether the driver kept proper lane control. The cause of this crash has not been determined.

Washington follows a pure comparative fault system, which means an injured person’s recovery may be reduced by their share of fault but not barred entirely. This makes it important to understand how fault is assessed after any crash. Each case depends on its own facts.

This summary is general information, not legal advice. Every case depends on its specific facts.
