High-Speed Collisions in New York
The five boroughs of New York City are home to a large population of residents who have a bad habit of speeding. This behavior is known to result in deadly car accidents. Over 10,000 people lose their lives on American roads each year as a result of speeding, which accounts for about 25 percent of all traffic fatalities in the country. Many more sustain injuries that could be fatal. Speeding can significantly lengthen the stopping distance and make it much harder to keep control of an automobile.
