Car Accidents in California
Every year, over 200,000 vehicle collisions are reported in the state of California. Quite often, these accidents result in injuries for those involved. We see many people left with severe injuries as a result of crashes that take place right here in our state. Quite often, these crashes are caused by drivers who are negligent. Some of the leading causes of crashes we see here in California include:
- Distracted driving: With so many things competing for our attention these days, it's no wonder that distracted driving is on the rise. Whether it's talking on the phone, texting, or just daydreaming, taking your eyes off the road for even a second can lead to disaster.
- Speeding: Speed limits exist for a reason - to keep us safe. But far too many drivers choose to ignore them, putting themselves and others at risk.
- Drunk driving: This is one of the most preventable causes of car accidents, but sadly it still happens far too often.
- Road rage: We've all been there - someone cuts us off in traffic or drives too slowly in the fast lane and suddenly we lose our cool. But getting angry behind the wheel is never a good idea. It can lead to aggressive driving and put everyone on the road at risk.
