High-Speed Collisions in New York
The actions you take behind the wheel can potentially increase the risk of a crash. Many drivers in New York have the risky habit of speeding, which causes thousands of fatalities each year across the country. Thousands of people are killed in high-speed crashes annually, making up around 25 percent of all traffic deaths in the United States. Over 33 people died in speeding-related crashes nationwide each day in 2021, according to the latest crash data. Speeding lengthens an automobile’s stopping distance and raises the risk that a driver may lose control of their vehicle.
