West Virginia Speeding-Related Crashes
There are many things that can lead to serious car accidents, and a driver’s actions can either impair or support overall road safety. Speeding is one of the most dangerous things we see on the road. When someone speeds, they put other drivers in real danger, and there are many reasons why speeding makes it more likely that a major car accident will happen. Drivers are less able to control their cars when they are going too fast because they require much further distance to stop. Speeding has been the main cause of traffic deaths for the past 20 years, making up more than one-third of all reported road deaths in the United States. If there is a major car accident, those who break the law can be held accountable for any resulting injuries or other damages.
