Car Accidents in California
California has one of the highest rates of traffic accidents in the country, with thousands of crashes occurring each year. Busy streets and intersections often see a high volume of collisions, many of which lead to serious injuries. Even at lower speeds, accidents can have lasting effects on victims and their families.
Understanding some of the most common causes of car accidents may help prevent future collisions:
- Distracted Driving – Looking at a phone, adjusting the radio, or engaging in other distractions can take a driver’s attention away from the road, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Speeding – Driving too fast for road conditions or exceeding the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the severity of accidents.
- Running Red Lights and Stop Signs – Disregarding traffic signals at intersections can lead to dangerous T-bone or rear-end collisions.
- Impaired Driving – Alcohol or drug use significantly affects a driver’s ability to operate a vehicle safely, leading to a higher likelihood of crashes.
- Reckless Driving – Aggressive behaviors such as weaving in and out of traffic, tailgating, or sudden lane changes often result in collisions.
