Kansas High-Speed Driving Crashes
You are almost always at risk of getting into an accident when driving. But some driving habits might significantly raise the chance of an accident. Speeding is a common component in serious traffic accidents around the country. On American roadways, speeding drivers kill over 10,000 people annually, with an estimated thirty people dying daily in related crashes every day. Speeding significantly reduces a driver’s ability to control a motor vehicle and makes it more difficult to avoid unanticipated dangers on the road.
