New York High-Speed Collisions
There are certain factors behind the wheel that can greatly increase the risk of a car accident. When drivers speed, the risk of a crash is increased significantly, and these types of collisions are also known to result in more devastating injuries. When you speed, you are less able to control a car, and the stopping distance is increased significantly. This also means reaction time is impaired, and the road is a more dangerous place because of it. Spending contributes to nearly one-fourth of reported traffic fatalities on American roads each year, and it continues to play an important role in overall roadway safety in New York. You should always consult with a competent attorney to pursue a compelling personal injury claim after being hurt by a reckless motorist.
