New York Car Accidents

Car accidents are able to cause overwhelming injuries for the people who become involved in them. Unfortunately, car wrecks occur over 17,000 times per day in the United States and injure around 7,500 people each day. Sadly, over 100 individuals lose their lives per day in auto accidents that occur throughout the United States. Those who are hurt in auto crashes often end up stuck in the hospital where they must undergo medical care that can be expensive and invasive. Unfortunately, crash victims often become stuck in the hospital for weeks or longer, rendering them unable to work or see their loved ones. Overall, suffering injuries in an accident that are severe enough to send you to the hospital can be an overwhelming and difficult experience for anyone. 

Pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable travelers on the road at any given time. They are totally unprotected against the force of fast-moving, heavy vehicles if they become involved in accidents, which can cause them severe or even fatal injuries. Yearly, over 5,000 individuals end up losing their lives in pedestrian crashes in the US.
