Q: Wondering if we would have a case against property owners

My wife was in a car accident today, it wasn't bad but it happened on private property of a shopping center. She was at a stop sign where you can't really see oncoming traffic because of the median which is covered in high bushes and trees. The median separates the through street from the right hand turn lane and it has no stop. I did some research and found out that the same spot has caused multiple accidents. The police officer at the scene also stated that more accidents happen there then on the freeway in our town. I was wondering if we would have any type of case against the property owners based on what you've read.
