Fatal Accidents in Pennsylvania 

Car accidents happen every day in Pennsylvania, some of which are more common than others. Though a large percentage of collisions lead to serious injuries, some lead to fatal results. In 2020, it was reported that approximately 1,129 people were killed in fatal car accidents in Pennsylvania. This is actually the second lowest number of fatalities that Pennsylvania has experienced in several decades.
