Motor Vehicle Accidents
A Common Threat of Injury
One of the leading causes of personal injury is related to motor vehicle accidents, with roughly 295,000 collisions in New York for 2015 alone.
While there are occasions where nothing could have been done to prevent these accidents from happening, many times they are a direct result of negligent actions on the part of another individual.
So what is one of the biggest culprits for damage in vehicular accidents? Distracted driving encompasses a large portion of accidents each year, as drivers may choose to drive drunk, text and drive or perform some sort of other activity while on the road. Not only do these activities take their attention away from driving, they endanger numerous people around them.
