Duty of Care
In a lawsuit for negligence the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant owed them a duty to act with reasonable care.

Drivers are required to care for other drivers as well as pedestrians, and to follow traffic laws. Drivers who violate this obligation and causes an accident is accountable for the victim's injuries.

Causation
In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the defendant's breach of duty and the injuries. If a plaintiff suffered an injury to the neck in a rear-end accident and his or her attorney will argue that the crash was the reason for the injury. Other factors that are essential to cause the collision, such as being in a stationary car, are not considered to be culpable and therefore do not affect the jury's decision of the liability.
For psychological injuries, however, the link between a negligent act and the injured plaintiff's symptoms could be more difficult to establish. The fact that the plaintiff had troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with his or her parents, used alcohol and drugs or had previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological issues she suffers after a crash, but the courts typically view these elements as an element of the background conditions that caused the accident resulted rather than an independent reason for the injuries.

The proof of these damages is by a wide array of evidence, including depositions of family members or friends of the plaintiff medical records, depositions, or other expert witness testimony.
In cases involving multiple defendants, Courts will often use the rules of comparative negligence to determine how much of the total damages award should be allocated between them. The jury has to determine the proportion of fault each defendant has for the incident and then divide the total amount of damages awarded by the same percentage. New York law however, does not allow this. 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule when it comes to injuries suffered by driver of these vehicles and trucks.
