Mississippi Car Accidents
Car crashes happen constantly in the state of Mississippi and across the United States. In Mississippi specifically, tens of thousands of vehicle crashes happen annually that injure and take the lives of numerous people. Sadly, hundreds of individuals end up losing their lives due to car crashes that take place in Mississippi every year. These accidents happen for several different reasons, including vehicle malfunctions, bad weather, and driver negligence. However, driver negligence is the main reason the majority of car crashes occur in the United States. In fact, over 90% of reported auto accidents in the country are the result of negligent driving.
Drives who are distracted, intoxicated, fatigued, and speeding cause more auto collisions than bad weather and vehicle malfunctions combined. Being hurt in a car crash is no joke and can totally upend your entire life. You may be unable to work or see your friends and family, which can be overwhelming and depressing.
