High-Speed Accidents in Kansas
There is a possibility that you will be involved in a serious car accident when a driver speeds. According to estimates from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), about one-third of all road fatalities reported in the United States over the previous 20 years were caused by speeding drivers. Speeding extends the distance needed to stop entirely and increases the likelihood that you may lose control of your car. This combination has the potential to cause thousands of fatalities annually nationwide in addition to more catastrophic injuries. You should not be held responsible for a reckless driver’s actions.
