Car crashes’ toll on society “staggering”

As the below article, notes car crashes impose on our society a staggering toll…$871 billion a year.  The most common causes of automobile accidents are speeding, drunk driving and distracted driving.  If you are a victim of an automobile accident, those costs are imposed upon you in the form of repair costs, medical costs, lost work time, lost productivity and so many other costs.  And, your insurance just may not cover all that you think it does.  Then, there is your pain and suffering and diminution of quality of life, something which is difficult to put a monetary value on but clearly has value which ultimately is financial.  To fully compensate you for those losses, you need to have competent counsel on your side effectively advocating for you.
