High-speed Crashes in Kansas
A driver is far more likely to be involved in a serious auto accident when they speed. Approximately one-third of recorded traffic fatalities in the United States are caused by speeding drivers, according to the National Highway Road Safety Administration (NHTSA). Speeding extends the stopping distance and raises the risk that a driver will lose control of their vehicle. This potentially lethal combination claims thousands of lives in this nation each year. In the event of a serious collision, drivers who speed and knowingly put other people in danger should be held accountable. That is often only possible when you work with a trained attorney to pursue a personal injury claim.
