Camden Car Accident Lawyers at DiTomaso Law Obtain Compensation for Victims of Car Accidents

While automobile safety technology has progressed greatly in recent years, car accidents are still one of the most widespread dangers in America. One of the most common causes of death for individuals under the age of 50, car crashes account for more than 33,700 fatalities every year in the United States. The numbers have increased to the point that many statistics predict car accidents will become the fifth leading cause of death worldwide by 2030.

Driving is the most convenient and ubiquitous form of transportation, but also the most dangerous. This is a large part of what makes car accidents such a common danger. Since driving is an unavoidable risk for most people, it is important to be educated on the most common causes of car accidents and the best ways to avoid them.

Everyday Activities that Lead to Car Accidents

Many of the most dangerous causes of car accidents are simple, seemingly-innocuous attempts at multitasking while driving. While intoxicated driving is an overwhelming danger, even simple activities such as attempting to eat or talk while driving can lead to potentially deadly accidents. The most common causes of car accidents include:

Combating Unsafe Driving Practices

One of the most straightforward ways to drive more safely is to simply follow the rules of the road. Driving in a safe and cautious manner will give you more ability to react to the reckless habits of others. Safe driving practices that are easy to engage in include:

  • Remain focused while driving
  • Avoid talking or texting while driving
  • Plan ahead to avoid rushing or agitation
  • Always signal lane changes and turns
  • Maintain a safe following distance with other drivers
  • Properly maintain and repair car
  • Drive cautiously in unsafe conditions
