Fatal Vehicle Crash Statistics

A car accident occurs somewhere in the United States every sixty seconds. It is not surprising that millions of vehicles travel across American highways every day.

When so many vehicles use the same roads, gridlock, traffic jams, and (most seriously) car accidents with fatalities and catastrophic injuries will inevitably occur.

Between 2003 and 2016, there were reportedly 10,897 accidents on the city’s roads, including fatalities and collisions with serious injuries. At least 15,000 people were hurt, and at least 270 lost their lives during this time.

Collisions were considered involved in 35,5% of traffic accidents, with state highways accounting for most of these collisions. Many factors can cause car accidents, but the main ones are drunk or distracted drivers, drivers exceeding the speed limit, and drivers breaking other traffic laws.

Road accidents can be tragic and drastically alter someone’s life. Because car accidents happen so frequently, many drivers are unaware of how dangerous they can be. Additionally, they often underestimate how easily serious, even fatal, car accidents can happen.
