Arizona Auto Accidents
Car crashes constantly happen throughout the state of Arizona and across the United States. The United States sees more than 17,000 car wrecks per day, which is equivalent to around 6 million each year. Of these accidents, more than 3 million people sustain injuries, and about 40,000 lose their lives every year. Driver negligence causes the majority of these accidents.
Negligent drivers cause millions of people to become injured every year. In the Grand Canyon State, more than 55,000 people sustain injuries in car wrecks yearly. On average, more than 125,000 auto accidents are reported in the state of Arizona per year. Currently, most of the car wrecks reported in the state are caused by speeding, distraction, and intoxication. Driver distraction causes over 400,000 car crashes per year in the US and takes the lives of more than 3,000 people. When you or a member of your family has sustained injuries due to the actions of a negligent driver, you may qualify for financial compensation for the injuries and damages you face.
