Car accidents are an everyday reality on Washington roads, with hundreds of thousands of collisions happening each year. In 2023 alone, the state reported thousands of serious car crashes, many resulting in life-altering injuries and tragic losses. The growing number of severe accidents signals a troubling trend that shows no sign of slowing down.
A significant number of these incidents are caused by driver negligence. Across Washington and the rest of the country, reckless behaviors such as driving under the influence, texting while driving, speeding, and drowsy driving are among the top contributors to vehicle collisions. Far too often, innocent people are harmed because another driver failed to uphold their responsibility on the road.
