Examining the True Cost of Car Accidents

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that motor vehicle crashes took the lives of 36,560 people in 2018. In Nevada, 330 people died and thousands more were severely injured. Many of the accident victims who survived suffered such severe injuries that they were unable to return to work, required ongoing medical care, and lost their ability to participate in the activities they had enjoyed before their accidents. For many accident survivors, their health, wellbeing, and financial stability are now in jeopardy.

Ambulance rides, hospital treatment, medications, adaptive equipment, and ongoing medical care are now a reality for countless accident victims and these expenses can quickly add up. Even for those with health insurance, these costs can cause financial ruin.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

In the United States, a traffic accident happens approximately every minute. From minor fender benders to catastrophic collisions, car accidents injure and kill millions of people every year. Most car accidents in Las Vegas are caused by preventable driver error. The top causes of crashes include the following.

1
Distracted Driving

Distracted driving has become a leading cause of serious car accidents, contributing to nearly 3,000 deaths each year. If drivers are engaging in any activity that diverts their attention from the task of driving, they are driving distracted. Common distractions include texting, scrolling through social media, eating and drinking, and talking on the phone.

2
Impaired Driving

When drivers are impaired by drugs or alcohol, their motor skills, reaction time, judgment, comprehension, and vision are compromised. This jeopardizes their safety and the wellbeing of others on the road. Alcohol impairment causes approximately 25% if all traffic-related deaths in the United States. Prescription medications and illegal drugs also play a significant role in injury and fatality crashes.

3
Speeding

Driving at excessive speeds increases the risk of getting involved in a car accident because it is more difficult for a driver to maintain control. The faster a motor vehicle is moving, the more distance a car travels in a shorter period of time. This reduces the driver’s ability to react to road hazards. Additionally, the effectiveness of passenger safety features is reduced, and the resulting injuries are often much more severe.

4
Driving While Fatigued

Fatigued drivers are slower to react to road hazards, often have difficulty concentrating, and experience impaired motor skills. Recent studies suggest that a fatigued driver is often as dangerous as a driver who is impaired by drugs or alcohol.
