Car Crash Statistics

Many California drivers aren’t aware that single-vehicle collisions are among the deadliest on the state’s roads.

More than six out of ten fatal car accidents in California involve only one vehicle, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Driving in California necessitates understanding the various factors contributing to a single-car accident.

There are a lot of reasons why a single vehicle may have collided with another. When a driver loses control of their vehicle while speeding or making sharp turns on wet or icy roads, single-car accidents tend to happen. Other types of roadside litter include large trees and truck bed debris.

The comprehensive coverage plan of your insurance policy is likely to limit your compensation in the event of an accident caused by an unexpected occurrence.
