Car accidents are one of the nation’s greatest, yet least discussed, epidemics. Indeed, more people under the age of 34 die in car accidents than from any other cause. In any given five-year period, approximately a quarter of the drivers on the road are involved in car crashes. Tragically, most car accidents could have been prevented if not for the negligence of one of the drivers involved.
