Auto accidents happen tens of thousands of times per day in the United States, causing over 7,500 people to sustain injuries and more than 100 to lose their lives daily. In Washington, hundreds of accidents are reported daily, a percentage of which end in injuries and fatalities for those involved. Unfortunately, the majority of reported auto accidents in the US and in the state of Washington are preventable and caused by driver negligence.
Driver negligence is behind almost all of the auto accidents reported in the US today. In Washington, distraction and intoxication are the most common types of negligence seen among drivers.

Drivers who engage in dangerous and careless behaviors not only risk their own lives but also risk the lives of everyone on the road.
