High-Speed Collisions in Kansas
When a driver speeds, the likelihood of a serious auto collision is always much greater. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that speeding drivers were responsible for over one-third of all traffic fatalities reported in the United States over the past 20 years. Speeding raises the chance that you will lose control of your vehicle and extends the distance you need to stop. Each year, this combo is responsible for thousands of deaths nationwide. You do not want to foot the bill for another driver’s negligence. To get a full recovery, you have to start working on a personal injury claim with the help of an experienced attorney.
