Car or Truck Crashes

 

In the United States, there are approximately 3 million auto accident injuries per year resulting in 2 million permanent injuries and 40,000 deaths per year. Approximately 39% of traffic fatalities involve alcohol.

 

Collisions can occur with other automobiles, other vehicles such as trucks, motorcycles or bicycles, and with pedestrians. At least 90% of car crashes are proven to be the result of negligence.

 

Following a collision, most accident victims are entitled to payment and coverage of medical bills, reimbursement of any lost wages and assurance that the insurance company will pay for future treatment relating to the injuries. In addition, accident victims that are seriously injured may have an additional claim against the person whose negligence caused the accident.
