Among the things causing some of the greatest crash rates in the nation include driving while distracted, driving too fast, and driving while intoxicated. Tens of thousands of Americans lose their lives to speeding drivers each year, and during the last 20 years, speeding has been linked to about one-third of all reported traffic fatalities in the nation. In an accident, you run a greater risk of losing control of your vehicle and suffering serious injuries if you exceed the speed limit.
