Two-Vehicle Crash Statistics

In the United States, there are far more car accidents than you might expect. Every 60 seconds, a car accident occurs, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). In the United States, approximately 5.25 million people are injured or killed in car accidents each year.

That Texas is the country’s most populous state is due in large part to the fact that it has the highest percentage of legally licensed drivers and public roads. Although the country’s busiest highway system is located here, it doesn’t really matter. As a result, every year, a large number of car accidents occur in Texas.

The Texas Department of Transportation estimates that 3,500 Texans die, and 246,000 are injured each year in car accidents in the state.

Following a car accident, soft tissue injuries, lacerations, fractures, headaches, and migraines are common.
