FATAL MULTI-VEHICLE CRASH STATISTICS

Car accidents can have far-reaching consequences. Because car accidents are so common, many people are unaware of how dangerous they can be and how easily serious injuries can result.

Drivers and passengers are killed in car accidents at an alarming rate in the United States. According to the United States Department of Transportation’s Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), 33,654 people were killed, and 36,560 were injured in car accidents in 2018.

Multiple-vehicle accidents are shockingly rare regarding the number of people killed or injured and the amount of property lost.

A multi-vehicle crash is one in which three or more vehicles collide. One of the most common causes is a chain reaction. Because of the sheer number of people involved, this type of situation is difficult to manage.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), multi-vehicle collisions are responsible for one out of every four traffic deaths. Each year, an estimated 13,000 people are killed in these accidents.

In multi-vehicle accidents, court battles over fault are common. If you lose a legal battle, you may lose your right to compensation for your injuries. This is why having an experienced car accident lawyer on your side is critical.

Avoid hitting another vehicle if you’re in a multi-vehicle crash by applying the brakes slowly and steering into something soft, like a bush or a railing. Keep an eye out for anyone who may be wandering around the area following a previous accident.
