Personal Injury Auto Accident Deaths

More than 43,000 auto accident deaths and 2.5 million injuries in traffic accidents occurred across the United States in 2006. Over half of the people who died in those accidents weren't wearing a seat belt. In fact, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there were more than 4,300 auto accident deaths in California alone in 2005.
