Vehicle Accidents in California

Studies show that on average, if drivers received their license by 16, they’re likely to be involved in at least one accident by the time they’re 34. The leading cause of most vehicle accidents is negligent driving, which includes distracted driving and reckless driving. Most of the time people don’t mean to put themselves and others in harm’s way, but when they decide to text, speed, eat, drink, groom, converse with passengers, and fall asleep at the wheel, they’re putting everyone in danger of being seriously injured or killed.

Once the police figure out what caused this accident, all of the injured victims may be able to file personal injury lawsuits with the help of a California personal injury attorney.
