High-Speed Crashes in Kansas
Speeding drivers make it more likely that you will be in a major car accident. Based on figures from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), speeding drivers were responsible for about one-third of all traffic deaths in the United States over the last 20 years. When you speed, it takes longer to stop and there’s a greater chance that you could lose control of your car. This combination contributes to thousands of deaths every year. You don’t want to be hurt by a careless driver. To get the most out of your healing, you should always work with an experienced lawyer to pursue the strongest personal injury claim possible.
