High-Speed Collisions in New York
The speed limit on New York City streets is 25 miles per hour. Unfortunately, speeding drivers often result in deadly car crashes. In all, 3,940 car crashes in the city in 2022 involved drivers who were traveling over the speed limit. Statistics show that almost 10,000 people are killed by speeding drivers on American roads each year, and in the last 20 years, high-speed collisions have been linked to almost one-third of all traffic fatalities. Driving too fast increases your chances of losing control of your car and getting into a major collision, which can result in injuries that are always far worse than those from a regular collision. It can be hard to recover on your own following a severe crash. A knowledgeable lawyer is ready to take up your case and pursue a full recovery on your behalf.
Navigating the complicated claims process is already difficult enough. When dealing with serious injuries, it can seem almost impossible.
