California’s Serious Accident Statistics
Over 3,000 people died in car accidents in 2017. In fact, California has one of the highest rates of fatal car crashes among US states. Driver distraction is the cause of many of these accidents. When drivers text, try to apply makeup, attempt to change the radio station, talk to passengers or–worst of all– drive while under the influence, the instant of distraction these behaviors cause is enough to result in a serious accident.
