Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about head-on collision cases in Cocoa Beach
After a head-on collision in Cocoa Beach, your immediate priority should be safety and medical attention. Call 911 and ensure police document the scene. If possible, take photos of vehicle positions, damage, and road conditions – especially important on busy roads like A1A where evidence can quickly disappear.
Even if you feel fine initially, seek medical attention – some serious injuries may not show symptoms immediately. Keep all medical records and follow your doctor's instructions carefully. Contact our office as soon as possible so we can begin protecting your rights and gathering critical evidence.
Liability in head-on collisions is determined by establishing which driver crossed the centerline or was otherwise negligent. Our team investigates factors like:

In Cocoa Beach, we often see cases where unfamiliar drivers make dangerous passing attempts or become distracted by beach activities. Our extensive experience with local accident cases helps us effectively establish liability.
