Speeding-Related Crashes in New York
When a motorist is careless, the chance of a catastrophic crash is always greater. Speeding is a dangerous habit that many drivers in New York have, and it results in thousands of fatalities annually nationwide. High-speed collisions claim thousands of lives each year, accounting for around 25 percent of all road fatalities nationwide on average. According to statistics, over 33 people were killed daily in speed-related crashes in 2021. Speeding increases the likelihood that a driver will lose control of their car and considerably increases the stopping distance of an automobile, which is a potentially dangerous combo.
