Kansas Speeding-related Crashes
Certain actions that you do while driving can significantly raise the chance of an accident. Speeding is one particularly risky behavior that is prevalent on Kansas roads. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the number of fatalities linked to speeding rose by more than 8 percent between 2020 and 2021, with 12,330 people dying in high-speed crashes in 2021 alone. Speeding drivers are responsible for over one-third of all traffic fatalities in the country. By submitting a personal injury claim, drivers who break the speed limit and cause a serious collision can potentially be held accountable for any resulting injuries and other damages.
