Fatal Car Accidents in California
California has seen an increase in fatal car accidents in recent years. Thousands of people continue to die year after year as a result of these accidents. Regrettably, there are many reasons why these accidents continue to take place. Some leading causes of fatal crashes in California include:
- Vehicle Defects: Vehicle defects can include anything from improperly installed equipment to manufacturing defects. In a car accident involving a defective vehicle, the driver may be at risk for serious injury or even death.
- Human Error: Human error can take many different forms. These actions often include not paying attention to the road ahead, speeding, or driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
- Bad Weather: Bad weather can play a role in any car accident, but is particularly deadly in crashes involving wet roads, heavy smoke conditions, and even darkness. In these types of accidents, reduced visibility and slow speeds make it easy for cars to skid off the road and into other vehicles, leading to fatalities.
