Fatal Multi-Vehicle Crash Statistics

The consequences can be devastating and long-lasting when a person is involved in a car accident. Given the frequency with which car crashes occur, many people who operate motor vehicles fail to appreciate the gravity of the dangers they face each time they hit the road.

The high number of people killed in car crashes has put the United States in a dire situation. The Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) of the U.S. Department of Transportation reports that 33,654 people were killed, and another 36,560 were injured in traffic accidents in the United States in 2017.

Multi-vehicle accidents are extremely rare and, as a result, rarely have serious consequences.

Collisions involving four or more vehicles are considered multi-vehicle collisions. Many people have been hurt in a string of accidents that have no apparent connection. More people are involved, which has increased the situation’s complexity.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), multi-vehicle accidents cause one in four traffic fatalities. It is estimated that around 13,000 people per year lose their lives in similar incidents.

It usually takes a trip to court to determine fault when multiple vehicles are involved in an accident. If you don’t win, you might as well give up on getting any money for your injuries. An experienced auto accident attorney is crucial to have on your side in a situation like this.

Try directing your car into a bush or railing instead of another vehicle if multiple vehicles are involved in a collision. Finding potential eyewitnesses to an accident is crucial.
