Fatal Two-Vehicle Crash Statistics

Car accidents happen every day on U.S. roadways. This comes as no surprise as cars are the most common form of transportation in the country. Millions of cars pass through U.S. roadways every day. The number of people killed or injured in car accidents in the United States has risen dramatically over the years.

According to the National Safety Council (NSC), an estimated 38,000 people were killed in motor vehicle accidents in the United States in 2019. Car accidents are sometimes life-altering and traumatic.

Because of how universal cars are to our lives, drivers often forget just how dangerous they can become and that severe and even deadly car crashes can occur. A variety of reasons cause these car accidents; they mainly occur due to drunk drivers, distracted drivers, people who break the speed limit, and drivers who ignore road laws in general.

The victim’s surviving family members (or legal heirs) have the right to file a wrongful death claim against the negligent driver. If you lost a loved one or were seriously injured in a car accident caused by another driver’s carelessness and negligence, you have the legal right to seek compensation for the damages that you’ve accrued from the accident.

To protect yourself and receive the full compensation to cover your medical and other related expenses, contacting an intersection accident attorney in California is your best option.
