Accidents can happen anytime and anywhere. There is no doubt that car accidents are not uncommon and could happen to anyone when least expected. The number of victims of car accidents is constantly increasing as every year there are more and more cars on the road.
Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows approximately 40,000 people are killed in 35,000 vehicle crashes every year. It is indeed shocking to see the number of people who have been victims of car accidents each year.
According to the law, road accidents are dealt with in a similar manner as most other accidents. The police will investigate the accident and give a report. They will then notify the parties involved, if two cars or two people. In either case, you will be contacted to give your version of events. You may also be asked for a statement.
