Anyone who drives should be careful at intersections. National records show that one-third of all intersection accidents in the United States happen at crossings controlled by stop signs, and nearly 40 percent of deadly accidents every year involve stop sign-controlled intersections. A lot of these accidents happen because drivers don't give the other driver the right of way. This can easily lead to a fatal or life-changing car accident. It is important to be ready to file a strong claim for compensation if you or someone close to you gets badly hurt in an Oklahoma car crash. In the aftermath of a deadly crash, it can feel that life will never be the same.
