The whole crash is still being looked into by the local authorities.
Two-Vehicle Accident Statistics
Every minute in the United States of America, a person is killed and another is injured in an automobile crash. Two million children and young adults under the age of twenty-four die every year from these avoidable causes.
It has been predicted by government officials and academics that the number of traffic fatalities in California would exceed 10,000 by the year 2050.
The number of people killed in automobile accidents increased by 23.5% in 2016. There were 3,898 fatalities and 279,223 injuries due to car accidents in 2017. Nine out of every 100,000 people who rode public transportation that year died.
Nobody in the history of professional driving has ever been perilously close to getting in an accident. Being a defensive driver and keeping up with routine vehicle maintenance can help you avoid getting into an accident.
