Multi-Vehicle Crash Statistics
The United States’ highways are among the most crowded in the world. There are 280 million cars in the United States, and 227.5 million people use them regularly.
Auto accidents are one of the most prevalent ways that people are harmed in California. Every day, many accidents occur on our congested streets in major metropolitan regions (such as San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and the greater Bay Area). A passenger vehicle or a large commercial truck could be involved in an auto collision.
In the United States, around six million car accidents occur each year. Over 38,000 people are killed in road accidents in the United States each year, making it the leading cause of mortality.
In 2015, there were 6,296,000 road collisions, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Approximately 4,474,000 crashes involved two or more vehicles, with 1,822,000 involving only one vehicle.
To protect yourself better in a multi-car pileup, hit the brakes gently to slow down and steer into a shrub or a guardrail rather than another vehicle. Also, keep an eye out for anyone walking around the scene of an earlier crash.
