High-Speed Collisions in West Virginia

Charleston, WV - Crash Causes Injury at Civic Center Dr & Quarrier StEvery year, tens of thousands of Americans are killed in high-speed crashes, and in the past 20 years, speeding has been connected to roughly one-third of all traffic fatalities in the United States. In 2021 alone, 12,330 persons lost their lives as a result of speeding driving. That year, high-speed crashes nationwide claimed the lives of approximately 33 people every day.
