Car Accident Statistics
In 2018, there were 6.3 million car accidents in the United States, as reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Major and minor accidents were included in this number, though in the vast majority of cases, the only damage was to property. However, over 36,000 people died, and nearly 2.5 million were injured in traffic accidents in 2016.
Many car accidents result from careless driving, but there are other causes for concern as well. The weather, the roads’ state, any vehicle problems, and so on are all examples.
All drivers should be aware of the potential dangers on the road and take preventative measures to help lower the annual total. The road rules must be followed, including the speed limit, defensive driving, and the absence of distractions. You should also keep your car in good shape and know how to operate all its features and controls. Taking these measures will increase your own and other drivers’ safety.
