High-Speed Collisions in Kansas
You are at increased risk of being involved in a serious car crash when a driver speeds. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), nearly one-third of reported traffic fatalities in the United States involve speeding motorists. Drivers who speed are more likely to lose control of their vehicles, and the distance needed to come to a complete stop will be increased significantly. This is a potentially deadly combination that contributes to the deaths of thousands across the country each year.
