Top Car Accident Causes In The United States And How To Avoid Them

PR Newswire iReach

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Lowcostcarinsuranceprice.com has released a new blog post that presents the top car accident causes in the United States and how to avoid them. 

Car crashes statistics are gruesome and each year tens of thousands of people lose their life.  The National Safety Council announced that last year 40.100 were killed during car accidents. It is just a 1% drop when compared with 2016.  Since most accidents end up with car damage and injuries, drivers should always carry sufficient car insurance coverage. To get the best rates, use http://lowcostcarinsuranceprice.com/ to compare prices.

But first, let's analyze the top causes:

  • Distracted driving. It is by far the leading cause of accidents worldwide, not only in the United States.  "Distracted driving" it is a general term. In reality, it is more complex and it refers to any visual, audio, mental and physical factor that can make a driver lose focus.  Using a cell phone is by far the most disruptive factor. Lots of people now use their phones to Facetime themselves when driving. Other forms of distracted driving include eating and drinking when driving, having a pet loose on board, grooming or changing the radio. To avoid an accident, the rule is simple: turn off the phone when driving (or at least use hand-free), secure all objects and persons inside the car and do not drive when overwhelmed by emotions.
  • Driving while under the influence (DUI). Drunk drivers are a danger not only for themselves but for anyone on the roads. Alcohol and illicit substances impair a person's senses and make him incapable of driving.  Even persons under medication should avoid driving since some drugs also alter perception. The solution is simple: people that want to party should get a designated driver with them. That person must not consume alcohol.
  • Bad weather. More exactly, failing to adapt the driving style to road conditions. And not having the right equipment. Cars are likely to hydroplane when driving wet roads or roads covered with wet leaves. Monitor the weather forecast in advance when planning to drive.
  • Speeding. This has always been a major concern. Driving a car at high-speeds will give the driver less time to react and avoid any obstacle he may encounter. Always keep the speed below the maximum legal limit. Slow down when driving around schools or kindergartens.
  • Mechanical problems. A car's "life" is also limited. As the car gets older it is likely to have various functionality problems. The engine and fuel systems are the first to fail. Make sure to provide adequate maintenance, periodically check tires and fluids levels and bring the car to technical inspections.

"Being involved in a car accident is a traumatic experience.  Find out the major causes of accidents and try to stay safe", said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.
