Car Accidents in Hawaii
Car accidents are listed as one of the top ten leading reasons individuals are killed throughout the country. In 2021, more than 40,000 people lost their lives in car crashes across the nation. The previous year, this number was around 10% lower. This is the highest annual increase currently recorded by the National Highway Traffic Association.
In Hawaii, thousands suffer serious injuries in car crashes every year. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported that every sixty seconds in the US, approximately 13 car accidents take place. Roughly 27% of all traffic collisions result in injuries, which is equal to three injury accidents per minute.
According to estimates made by car insurance companies, the odds of you becoming involved in an auto collision during a 1,000-mile trip are about 1 in 366. The average driver files an insurance claim for a car crash approximately once every 18 years. When you or someone you love is injured in an auto crash with another individual, it’s crucial to be able to figure out whose fault the accident was.
