How Do Car Accidents Occur in Los Angeles?

Although car accidents can have many contributing factors, most crashes result from driver negligence. Common causes include:

Drunk driving: Alcohol impairs thinking, reasoning, and muscle coordination and significantly affects driving ability. One person dies in a drunk driving crash every 39 minutes in the U.S., according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
Drug-impaired driving: Recreational use of marijuana is legal in California for adults ages 21 and older, but it is not lawful to drive under the influence. Marijuana can slow reaction time, impair distance judgment, and decrease coordination.
Distracted driving: Anything that takes the driver’s attention away from operating a motor vehicle is driver distraction. Texting is a particularly alarming form of distraction as it requires visual, manual, and cognitive attention.
Speeding: In 2021, speeding killed 12,330 people in the U.S., according to NHTSA. It has been a factor in approximately one-third of all traffic fatalities for more than two decades.
Failure to obey traffic signs and signals: Traffic signals and signs are there for a reason. Drivers who disregard them put others on the road at risk. Running a red light at a busy intersection is one of the most reckless things a driver could do.
Big trucks: With e-commerce on the rise, we see more large commercial trucks on the roads than ever. Truckers are held to a higher standard because of the sheer size and weight of the big rigs they are driving and the types of cargo they may be carrying. Negligent truck drivers and trucking companies can cause catastrophic or fatal injuries to occupants of passenger vehicles.

What Types of Severe Injuries Can Car Accidents Cause?

The force of impact when vehicles collide can cause severe injury to virtually any part of the body. Many car accident victims suffer:

Head trauma and brain injury
Fractured bones
Dental fractures
Facial lacerations and injuries
Internal organ damage
Whiplash and neck injuries
Back and spinal injuries
Crush injuries
Amputation
Scarring and disfigurement
