Auto accidents kill tens of thousands of people every year. Hundreds of thousands more are seriously injured. Every week there is mention in the news of an auto accident occurring when the vehicle rounds a corner and the driver loses control. These kinds of accidents are often due to excess speed, weather conditions, and driver impairment. These are also three very common causes of auto accidents.
