THE PENNSYLVANIA STATISTICS

What you need to know is that vehicle crashes happen and that most people will be in more than one in their lifetime. While most vehicle crashes result in only property damage or minor injuries, we need to point out that even minor injuries can lead to major medical bills.

However, not all vehicle crash injuries are minor. Consider the following injuries we encounter when representing clients:

• Spinal cord injuries (with possible paralysis)
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Internal organ damage/internal bleeding
• Broken or dislocated bones
• Severe lacerations or amputations

These injuries all require medical treatment and some of them will likely see the victim needing extensive rehabilitation. The medical costs can easily reach hundreds of thousands of dollars, but those are only part of the overall cost. If a victim is unable to work while they recover, they may lose income needed to support themselves or their families.

We know that there were over 128,000 vehicle crashes reported in Pennsylvania according to the latest full year of data available. Out of those, there were:

• 1,137 total fatalities
• 80,612 injuries

Out of those injuries, over 4,000 were considered “serious.”

When it comes to the causes of vehicle crashes, we are particularly concerned with negligent driving behavior. This can include an array of things:

• Drivers operating under the influence of alcohol killed 293 people during the latest reporting year. They were responsible for 26% of all traffic-related deaths.
• Drivers who operate while distracted by their phones or other devices are just as dangerous. Anyone who is focused on a text message and not the roadway is going to cause a crash.
• Those who willfully disregard the speed limit need to be held accountable when they cause injuries.
