Car Accidents in California
Car accidents are one of the leading causes of death and injury in California. In 2021, there were more than 3,800 car accident fatalities in California. That's an average of more than 10 deaths per day.
There are many causes of car accidents in California. One of the most common causes is distracted driving. Distracted driving is any activity that takes a driver's attention away from the task of driving. This can include talking or texting on a cell phone, eating, talking to passengers, or fiddling with the radio.
Other common causes of car accidents in California include drunk driving, speeding, and failing to yield the right-of-way. These are all preventable accidents that occur when drivers make poor decisions or take unnecessary risks.
Unfortunately, any act of negligence can have serious consequences for other people sharing the road. People who are involved in accidents are often forced to go through extensive medical treatment. We see many people hospitalized with spinal cord injuries, broken bones, and internal organ damage.
