Motor Vehicle Accidents in Pennsylvania
The unimaginable calamity of suffering severe injuries or losing a loved one in a fatal accident is something that no one should have to endure. The tragic reality is that it occurs far too frequently, with more than 1,100 fatalities happening annually in Pennsylvania alone.
Accidents in Pennsylvania are still being caused by a variety of negligent behaviors on an annual basis. These incidents are frequently precipitated by failure to yield. Pedestrians who are passing in the vicinity may sustain severe or fatal injuries if drivers fail to yield.
In addition, distracted driving is a significant contributor to an excessive number of accidents. If drivers disregard roadway conditions or their environment in general, they are likely to inflict severe injuries that have significant repercussions for others. One of the primary causes of accidents is distractions. Texting, conversing with others, or even eating while operating a vehicle are all common activities.
