In Utah, fault in a car accident is determined through a combination of police reports, witness statements, and evidence from the accident scene. Utah follows a “no-fault” insurance system, meaning each driver’s insurance covers their own medical expenses regardless of who caused the accident. However, determining fault is crucial for property damage claims and when injuries exceed certain thresholds, allowing you to pursue a claim against the at-fault driver. Key factors include traffic law violations, driver behavior, and any available video footage. Consulting with a Utah car accident attorney can help navigate the complexities of fault determination and ensure you receive fair compensation.
