Car Accidents in Hawaii

Car accidents are reported every day in Hawaii. Many of these accidents result in serious harm for those involved. Regrettably, there are a significant number of accidents that take place due to preventable actions. Some of the most common factors in automobile accidents across Hawaii include:

• Distracted driving: This is the leading cause of car accidents in Hawaii. Distracted driving includes anything that takes your attention away from the road, such as using a cell phone, eating, or talking to passengers.
• Speeding: Speeding is a major factor in many car accidents. When a driver is driving too fast, they have less time to react to hazards, and they are more likely to lose control of your vehicle.
• Drunk driving: Drunk driving is another major cause of car accidents. Alcohol impairs a driver’s judgment, coordination, and reaction time, making it much more difficult to drive safely.
• Drowsy driving: Drowsy driving is just as dangerous as drunk driving. When a driver is tired, their reaction time is slowed, and they are more likely to make mistakes.
• Reckless driving: Reckless driving includes things like tailgating, road rage, and running red lights.

Unfortunately, these reckless and careless actions cause harm to innocent people every day in Hawaii.
