Kansas High-Speed Crashes
More than one-third of all car accidents in Kansas in 2021 were caused by drivers going too fast for the conditions of the road. Recent studies have found that more than 48 percent of drivers have gone over the speed limit in the last 30 days, despite the fact that most drivers think that going 15 miles per hour over the limit could be dangerous. Across Kansas, speeding led to about 6,922 injury crashes and 282 fatal collisions in a recent year. If you were hurt in a terrible car accident, you need to be able to work with a skilled legal team to make a strong personal injury claim and get full compensation.
It can be difficult to navigate the complicated claims process on your own following a serious auto accident.
