Rear-end collisions are some of the most common collisions in the United States. According to the most recent crash statistics, there are more than 1.7 million rear-end collisions in the country yearly. It should come as no surprise that driver distraction accounts for over 87 percent of rear-end collisions.
Distracted drivers are less likely to pay attention to the road and may crash into another car. Rear-end collisions are thought to be the cause of 1,700 fatalities annually, accounting for 7.1 percent of all traffic fatalities. If you or someone close to you is hurt in a car accident, you should pursue a personal injury claim by working closely with a competent legal team with a proven history of successful cases.
