Recovering Against Two or More Drivers

Answer:

Most likely, you can. If you were rear-ended simultaneously by one driver, and then the next driver came in and pushed that first car back into you, you most likely will be able to recover against both of the people that ran into the rear of you. The question becomes if a jury could separate the degree of damages caused by the first collision and the second collision. If they can’t separate what’s caused from the first impact and the second impact, Florida case law has held that both drivers are equally responsible for the entirety of your injury.
