Car accidents account for a high percentage of personal injury claims in the United States. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, every 10 seconds someone in America is involved in a car accident. Annually, more than 40,000 people are killed in approximately 5 million motor vehicle accidents. This means over 100 fatalities occur each day on our nation’s roadways.
The economic costs of these car accidents are staggering, amounting to more than $150 billion each year. Chances are that during your lifetime you will be involved in at least one auto accident.
