Injury Accidents in Delaware 
According to recent statistics from the Delaware Department of Transportation, there were 29,150 car accidents in Delaware in 2020. These accidents were just the crashes that were reported and the actual number of collisions could be far higher. Based on the reported statistics, 117 people were killed and 7,254 were injured in crashes that took place on Delaware’s roadways. While we normally take our safety for granted when we get into a vehicle, it is important to remember that a serious injury crash can take place anywhere at any time. Drivers should always drive cautiously and defensively in order to lower their risk of being involved in a potentially serious accident.
Under Delaware law, the injured victims of car accidents may be entitled to compensation for their injuries. If the other driver was partly at fault for causing the collision, you should speak with an attorney regarding your legal rights as soon as possible. If you delay, you could miss out on good advice that will help protect the integrity of your claim. Too many accident victims try to deal with the insurance adjuster on their own which results in their case being undervalued and jeopardized.
