Delaware Car Accidents 
Car accidents take place across Delaware multiple times each day. About 8,000 individuals are hurt each year when they are involved in accidents that occur across our state. A substantial number of car accidents happen on major highways such as I-495. Crashes are more likely to occur on highways because of the higher concentration of motorists and higher speed limits. Negligent drivers are very prevalent on highways and even a single mistake can lead to a chain of events that can alter the lives of many motorists.
If you or a loved one have sustained injuries in a Delaware car accident, you should be fully aware of your legal rights. Delaware law provides crash victims with remedies when they have been hurt in an accident that was not their fault.
