Car Accidents in Delaware 
According to the Delaware Department of Transportation, more than 8,000 victims were injured in Delaware car accidents in 2021. The reasons for these crashes are numerous, but we can reduce them down to a few common causes, including speeding, distraction, impairment, and reckless driving. Due to the number of negligent drivers on Delaware’s roadways, it is to be expected that some innocent motorists will be affected. All it takes is a split second of careless driving behavior to lead to a serious crash.
