Car accidents are reported in Delaware several times every day. According to statistics, there are thousands of crashes annually across our state and many of them will also result in injuries to one or more victims. The cause of every accident is carefully investigated by police but most are caused by negligent drivers. A negligent driver is a driver who fails to obey traffic laws and the rules of the road.
