5 Common Causes of Car Accidents

Even though driving an automobile is part of the daily routine for most people in America, it can still be a very dangerous action when people act recklessly or negligently behind the wheel. With over five million car accidents every year in the United States – twelve every minute – tens of thousands of people die and hundreds of thousands suffer serious injury in automobile accidents annually. Even when an individual attempts to exercise all reasonable caution, he or she is still vulnerable to the actions of others.
