Hawaii Auto Collisions

American car crashes continue to take place at an alarming rate despite the safety advancements made in today’s vehicles. Car accidents cause more than 4.5 million people to become seriously injured each year in the United States. Sadly, tens of thousands of people lose their lives in American car crashes each year. In Hawaii, about 10,000 car crashes are reported yearly that cause injuries to thousands and take the lives of hundreds of people. Overall, auto accidents have become a serious and deadly problem in the United States over the past decade or so. This is mostly due to the actions of negligent drivers. Drivers who choose to pay attention to their phones, radios, friends, food, or anything else other than the roadway in front of them put themselves and everyone around them at serious risk for severe injuries or even death. It’s easy to think that you will never become injured in a car crash, however, the truth is that most American drivers will become involved in at least four auto collisions throughout their lives. 

Car accidents are never expected. Before you even know what happened, you may find yourself with severe and painful injuries that will keep you from living your life the way you want to. Unfortunately, it is impossible from preventing auto accidents. However, drivers have the ability to remain aware, alert, sober, and awake while behind the wheel, which can greatly reduce the chance of a collision taking place. 

If you or a loved one has sustained injuries in a Hawaii car crash, it is likely that it was caused by driver negligence. The most prevalent causes of traffic accidents in the Aloha State include speeding, distraction, and intoxication. These, among others, are very common types of driver negligence seen in the country each day. Hundreds of thousands of people sustain injuries in the United States every year due to negligent driving. In one recent year, distracted driving causes over 20% of all accident-related deaths in Hawaii. If driver negligence caused your crash, you will most likely be eligible to collect financial compensation for numerous damages that may have resulted from your accident and the injuries that followed.
