Car Accident Injuries
Every year, traffic accidents result in the injuries of about two million people. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) , for every 1,000 miles you drive, there is a 1 in 366 chance that you will be in a car accident. Some car accidents result in minor injuries and a small possibility of death.
Car accidents are a major cause of significant injury and death both in the US and much of the rest of the world. Injuries from typical car crashes result in 1 million hospital stays per year in the US, costing $18 billion in lifetime medical expenses and $33 billion in lost productivity.
