Injury Accidents in Delaware
The citizens of Delaware have access to a vast network of multi-lane highways and roads, which can be very convenient for commuters and travelers. However, with this convenience also comes its fair share of risks. Drivers in Delaware should be aware while they’re driving, not only of road conditions but also of other drivers.
In the year 2020, the Delaware Department of Transportation reported 31,500 auto accidents that happened in the state of Delaware. Of the 31,500 accidents reported, over 7,000 of them were fatal accidents. What is unknown is how many of those accidents came with injuries that later contributed to premature death.
It is curious why such a small state has so many car accidents, there are many reasons why this is so. Distracted driving, DUI, reckless driving, and speeding are just a few of the most common causes of accidents with injuries.
If you have been injured in an auto accident, consult with an experienced Delaware Injury Accident Lawyer so you can navigate the legal process with ease and confidence.
Single vehicle accidents can be devastating enough, but once there’s an accident involving two or more vehicles, the potential for damage and injuries increases. Unfortunately, in many cases, victims who end up seriously injured in auto accidents were not the ones at the fault, and they are left to suffer serious consequences.
Not only do serious injuries from auto accidents complicate your daily life by compromising your vehicle and means of transportation, but you can also end up sacked with medical debt. Many victims also incur the hidden cost of missed wages due to not being able to work from their injuries, and from the various meetings and appointments they may have.
Many victims find it quite difficult if not impossible to return to their daily life in the same capacity as they did before their accident. These life changes can be incredibly difficult to accept and process, and they leave many victims suffering from things like depression, anxiety, and other ailments.
