Fatal Single-Vehicle Crash Statistics

Many drivers in California aren’t aware that single-vehicle collisions are among the deadliest on the road.

By the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) estimate, 62% of all fatal car accidents in California are caused by one vehicle. In California, single-vehicle collisions are all too common, so drivers must be aware of the numerous factors that contribute to their likelihood.

A wide range of factors can cause a single-vehicle accident. A run-off-the-road accident occurs when a driver loses control while speeding or making sharp turns on a wet or slick road. Large branches and other objects may become roadside debris as a result of collisions with moving vehicles.

Even if a deer ran out in front of your car and caused an accident, your insurance policy’s comprehensive coverage is likely to limit your compensation.

Los Angeles County Car Accident Lawyers

Injury to the back and/or neck is common among those involved in car accidents. It doesn’t matter how bad the circumstances are, the negligent driver is still responsible for the death of another person. If a negligent driver is responsible for a victim’s death, the victim’s family members can file a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver (or legal heirs).

It’s difficult for them to go through the motions of mourning and reliving the events of the past. As a result of depositions and trials, victims are forced to testify in public about their financial losses. One’s mental health can suffer greatly during a long legal battle.

Drivers must be held accountable if they cause an accident. Due to negligence, high death tolls are essential in these cases. Wrongful death lawsuits can be a source of solace for those who have lost a loved one, but they can also be emotionally draining. Those who travel on the state’s roads will be pleased.
