Car accidents have become a significant issue across the nation, with over 5 million traffic collisions occurring each year in the United States. These crashes result in millions of injuries and claim the lives of more than 40,000 individuals annually. Washington state alone sees tens of thousands of these accidents each year, many of which are the result of reckless or negligent driving.
While factors like vehicle malfunctions and poor road conditions contribute to some accidents, the leading cause of crashes in the U.S. is driver negligence. Distracted driving, in particular, is responsible for more than 400,000 accidents annually, claiming over 3,000 lives each year. Other common forms of negligent driving include impaired driving, driving while fatigued, and speeding.
