Car Accidents in California
California consistently ranks among the states with the highest number of traffic accidents. Each year, thousands of people suffer injuries in collisions across the state, with urban areas like Orange County experiencing frequent crashes due to high traffic volumes. Many of these accidents lead to significant medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress for those involved.
Here are some of the most common causes of car accidents in California:
- Distracted Driving – Texting, talking on the phone, and other distractions often lead to preventable crashes. Even a brief lapse in attention can result in a serious accident.
- Speeding – Excessive speed reduces a driver’s ability to react to sudden changes in traffic, increasing the risk of collisions and severe injuries.
- Running Red Lights and Stop Signs – Intersections are common locations for accidents, especially when drivers fail to yield or stop as required.
- Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drug use remain significant contributors to accidents, affecting reaction time and decision-making abilities.
- Reckless Lane Changes – Failing to signal or check blind spots before switching lanes can lead to dangerous side-impact collisions.
