The actions you take behind the wheel can impact others on the road. The speed involved in an accident is very important. In recent years, speed has become a major factor in total road safety. Every year, thousands of people are killed across the country by drivers who are going too fast. In fact, high-speed crashes have been responsible for almost one-third of all road deaths in the past two decades. When a crash takes place at high speeds, you are much more likely to lose control of your car, and the resulting injuries will likely be much more severe.
