Fatal Two-Vehicle Crash Statistics

California has it all when it comes to beautiful weather and interesting places to visit with friends and family. Because so many people want to live in California, the number of people who live there has grown. California, on the other hand, has some drawbacks. It has one of the lowest driver safety percentages in the country.

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) Fatality Facts 2018 research, California has the highest car accidents and fatalities due to vehicle collisions.

Between 2014 and 2016, there was a significant increase in fatal crashes. However, there were minor ups and downs between 2017 and 2020. In California, motor vehicle deaths have increased by 5%, from 3,540 in 2019 to 3,723 in 2020.

Truck accidents can cause some of the most severe injuries of any motor vehicle accident. This occurs because the vehicle’s increased size and weight generate more force in a collision. That force has to go somewhere, and all too often, it ends up on victims in other vehicles and on the road.

Between 2011 and 2016, there were an average of 340 fatal crashes involving dump trucks in the United States each year. Many truck accidents result in serious injuries that render a victim permanently disabled. Some truck accident victims do not survive their injuries.
