South Carolina Lawyers: Fatal Car Accidents
According to a 2007 report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there were more than one million three hundred thousand people injured in passenger car accidents in 2007. According to the report, more than sixteen thousand people died as a result of a fatal car accident.
The total number of traffic related fatalities for 2007 was more than forty thousand (NHTSA report). Tragically, almost thirteen thousand of these fatalities resulted from an alcohol related incident and almost thirty percent of all fatal auto accidents involve drivers who are speeding (2007 and 2005 NHTSA reports).
