Auto Accidents in New York
Car accidents are one of the main reasons severe injuries and fatalities happen in the United States. Each year, millions of auto accidents occur throughout the country that injure millions of individuals and take the lives of tens of thousands. On average, more than 300,000 traffic accidents are reported throughout the state of New York annually. The main reason these wrecks occur is driver negligence. The story stays the same throughout the rest of the country, where driver negligence causes over 93% of reported auto collisions. This is most likely because so many people think they are safe looking at their phones while behind the wheel, or engaging in other distracting activities.
