Fatal Car Accidents in California
Each year, motor vehicle accidents impact the lives of tens of thousands of people across our state. Unfortunately, thousands of people end up passing away as a result of their injuries. In most cases, fatal accidents are a result of drivers who engage in reckless and negligent actions while operating their vehicles. Some of the leading causes of fatal collisions in our state include:
- drivers who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol while operating their vehicles
- drivers who are distracted by their cell phones, radios, and other objects
- drivers who fail to yield the right of way to other drivers sharing the road
- drivers who are speeding
- drivers who engage in reckless actions while behind the wheel
