The Accident Lawyers Network BlogAccident Lawyers NetworkWednesday, March 20, 20132012 Sees More Motor Vehicle Fatalities
According to
preliminary statics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA), fatal auto
accidents during the first nine months of 2012 were up 7.1 percent from the
same period in 2011.
From January
to September in 2012, the NHTSA reports 25,580 people were fatally injured in
auto accidents. During this same time-frame in 2011, 23,884 people were fatally
injured in similar accidents. The NHTSA further reports that total miles driven
in 2012 were up only .6 percent from 2011, making it clear that the increase in
fatal accidents did not correspond to a substantial increase in motor vehicle traffic.
