Two riders can have the same type of injury and still end up with very different outcomes. In Durham, that gap often comes from the story of how the crash happened and how quickly it was documented.
Common Durham situations that can change the settlement value include:
- Left-turn and intersection crashes where one driver claims they had the right of way.
- Lane changes near higher-speed corridors where visibility and speed estimates become disputed.
- Construction and resurfacing zones that create glare, changed lane markings, or unexpected hazards.
- Event-driven traffic that increases congestion and makes witness accounts more varied.
An AI tool may generate a range, but it can’t independently confirm who saw what, when, and why.
