Reckless Driving Accident Statistics

When motorists act aggressively or recklessly, they endanger the lives of those around them. Some drivers may be careless, but they should not put innocent bystanders in danger.

There need to be repercussions for careless drivers who endanger others. Reckless driving-related accidents are on the rise across the United States.

Around 6 million accidents occur every year in the United States, resulting in an average of 90 fatalities per day. Every year, three million people are hurt in car accidents, and two million of them are permanently disabled as a result.

Reckless driving is defined by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as a string of moving violations that pose an immediate threat to the safety of other road users or to private property.

Careless or drunk driving accounts for more than a third of the annual death toll of over 13,000.

All of these blunders result from carelessness. Drivers frequently engage in dangerous behaviors like speeding, tailgating, and racing. All drivers should avoid reckless behavior, such as using a handheld phone or driving under the influence of alcohol.
