Kansas High-Speed Collisions
When a driver speeds, there is an increased chance of getting involved in a serious auto accident. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that speeding drivers are responsible for around one-third of all traffic fatalities that have been reported in the United States. Speeding increases the likelihood that a motorist will lose control of their vehicle and extends the distance needed to stop completely. This combination can cause more serious injuries and could result in the deaths of thousands of people in this country every year. You do not want to fall victim to an irresponsible driver. If you want to make the strongest claim possible, it is always helpful to work with an experienced attorney.
