- Traffic ViolationsIn the state of Pennsylvania, you must prove that the defendant in a personal injury lawsuit is negligent. You can do this by showing that he/she fell short of acting with the level of care that a reasonable person would have shown in the same situation. You can also prove this by showing that the defendant violated a law designed to ensure safety, such as a law against going through a stop sign or the law against speeding. If you can prove negligence and you can show that the negligence was the direct cause of harm or injury, you can receive compensation for your injuries.
