Reckless Driving Accident Statistics

Drivers who drive aggressively or recklessly endanger other people’s lives. The reckless driving of others should not put innocent people in harm’s way.

Motorists who drive recklessly and injure others should be held accountable. Careless drivers are to blame for an increasing number of car accidents across the country.

The approximately 6 million accidents that occur in the United States each year kill an average of 90 people per day. Every year, three million people are injured in car accidents, and two million of those suffer long-term damage.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration defines reckless driving as an individual committing a combination of moving traffic violations in order to endanger other people or property.

More than a third of the 13,000 people killed in car accidents each year result from careless or drunken driving.

Carelessness is the root cause of each of these mistakes. It’s common for drivers to engage in reckless driving behaviors such as speeding, tailgating, or racing each other. Drunk driving and talking on the phone are two examples of negligent behavior that all drivers should avoid.
