According to the United States
Census Bureau, in 2009 there were almost 11 million car accidents cross ways the country. That is the uppermost number on
record, and it is a figure that will likely continue to grow along with the
country’s inhabitants. Even with today’s technology and a greater emphasis on
automobile safety, car accidents continue to occur. The causes of car accidents
are pretty varied, but it is important for all of us -- as members of the
motoring public -- to understand the most common causes of car accidents so
that we can make every effort to prevent them. There are two broad categories
of causes when it come to car accidents. The first is driver error, and the
second category encompasses everything else. According to studies done by the
National thoroughfare Traffic Safety Administration as well as by a
variety of states, driver error is by far the largest single cause of car
accidents in the United States.
