This is especially true in the USA. where the vast majority of people choose to drive rather than use any other kind of transport. The landscape does lend itself to driving and many suburbs and towns are built around residents\u2019 ability to drive.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But, despite how common driving is, it is still a dangerous activity. Especially when someone isn\u2019t keeping to safety rules as they should. Many people are so confident about driving that they often feel that they don\u2019t need to adhere to the laws as much as they should. But this definitely isn\u2019t the case.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Just glancing at a phone or not wearing a seatbelt for a drive to the grocery store is extremely dangerous. The information below shows an in-depth breakdown of car crashes across the USA. As well as some tips and reminders of how to stay safe on the road.<\/p>\n<h2>Annual United States Road Crash Statistics<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, there were an estimated&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhtsa.gov\/press-releases\/roadway-fatalities-2019-fars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">6.74 million car crashes<\/a>&nbsp;across the US in 2019. This is an increase of 0.3% on the year prior. This equates to around 18,500 crashes a day. In 2019, there were&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/183505\/number-of-vehicles-in-the-united-states-since-1990\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">276 million cars registered within the US<\/a>A. With a population of more than 328 million, this means that more than 84% of Americans own a car.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In 2014,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2015-04-17\/a-pew-survey-charts-global-car-motorcycle-and-bike-ownership\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">&nbsp;a study<\/a>&nbsp;found that the USA had the second-highest level of car ownership in the world after Italy. When this is taken into account statistically, 6.74 million doesn\u2019t seem like a very high number. Especially when it is considered that the number of car crash fatalities in 2019 (published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Association) was over 36,000.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"859\" height=\"827\" src=\"http:\/\/2passdd.com\/Arizona-Defensive-Driving-School\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Crashes.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/2passdd.com\/Arizona-Defensive-Driving-School\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Crashes.png 859w, https:\/\/2passdd.com\/Arizona-Defensive-Driving-School\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Crashes-300x289.png 300w, https:\/\/2passdd.com\/Arizona-Defensive-Driving-School\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Crashes-768x739.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 859px) 100vw, 859px\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jimmy Taylor from Auto Collision Legal&nbsp; has a great new article on Road Safety you can read the original article here&nbsp; https:\/\/autocollisionlegal.com\/road-safety-in-the-usa\/ I have included a few of the highlights below Driving is something many people do without thinking.
