Car Accidents Are a Serious Problem on High Point’s Roads

High Point sits at a busy crossroads of the Piedmont Triad, and that means serious traffic — and serious accidents. Common trouble spots our clients tell us about include:

Business 85 (US-29/70) — a major freight and commuter corridor known for high-speed rear-end and multi-vehicle crashes, including fatal wrong-way collisions
Eastchester Drive (NC-68) — High Point’s busiest commercial corridor, packed with retail traffic, turning conflicts, and pedestrian crossings
Wendover Avenue — the primary connector between High Point and Greensboro, notorious for rush-hour congestion between 7:30–9:00 a.m. and 4:30–6:00 p.m.
I-85 and I-74 — heavy freight routes linking High Point to Charlotte, Winston-Salem, and Greensboro, where high speeds turn minor mistakes into serious injuries

If your accident happened on any of these roads — or anywhere else in High Point, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, or the surrounding Piedmont Triad — our attorneys can help you understand your rights and your options.

North Carolina’s Contributory Negligence Law Could Affect Your Claim

Here’s something many High Point accident victims don’t realize until it’s too late: North Carolina is one of only a handful of states that follows pure contributory negligence. Under this rule, if the insurance company can show you were even 1% at fault for the accident, you could be barred from recovering any compensation at all — regardless of how badly you were hurt or how much the other driver’s negligence contributed.

Insurance companies know this law well, and they use it aggressively to deny or minimize claims. This is exactly why having an experienced High Point car accident lawyer on your side from the start matters — we know how to build a claim that stands up to this kind of scrutiny, gather the evidence that protects you from unfair blame-shifting, and push back when adjusters try to use contributory negligence as an excuse to pay you less than you deserve.

What to Do After a Car Accident in High Point

Get medical attention — even if you feel fine, some injuries don’t show symptoms right away.
Call the police and get an official accident report.
Document everything — photos of the scene, vehicle damage, and any visible injuries.
Get contact and insurance information from every driver involved.
Avoid giving a recorded statement to any insurance company, including your own, before speaking with an attorney.
Contact Tien Law Firm before accepting any settlement offer.

Insurance companies often move fast to settle claims before victims understand the full extent of their injuries — or before they know how North Carolina’s contributory negligence law might be used against them. Talking to an attorney early protects your right to full compensation.
