Speeding-Related Accidents in Washington

undefinedSpeeding is a prevalent factor in deadly car crashes across the United States, and many Seattle drivers have a bad habit of exceeding the speed limit. Over the last two decades, speeding has been involved in nearly one-third of reported roadway fatalities in the United States. Nearly 25 people were killed daily in high-speed crashes in 2018, contributing to over 9,000 roadway fatalities that year.

If you have been injured in a Washington car crash, you have the right to pursue a negligence claim for your injuries. Anyone who gets behind the wheel has to exercise reasonable care to obey the traffic laws of the State of Washington. Failure to do so may constitute negligence and give rise to a claim for lost damages for the injured party. Pursuing a personal injury claim in Washington is a long and confusing process for those with little experience in the law, but you do not have to do it alone.
