Washington Car Crashes

Car accidents have become a common problem in the United States, especially in the last decade. The United States sees over 6 million traffic collisions per year that end in injuries for approximately 3 million people and take the lives of over 40,000 per year. In Washington alone, tens of thousands of vehicle accidents are reported annually that injure thousands of people and take the lives of hundreds. 

Auto accidents happen for countless reasons. Car problems, bad road conditions, and negligent driving are all to blame for the large volume of auto collisions reported in the United States. However, negligent driving has become the main contributor to over 90% of reported traffic accidents in the US. 

Distracted driving is the most common type of driver negligence seen on American roadways today, causing more than 400,000 reported auto accidents per year. Other common types of negligent driving include intoxication, fatigue, and speeding. 

Suffering injuries in a serious auto accident can be completely devastating. You may find yourself stuck in the hospital with painful injuries while the costs from your crash begin to pile up.
