Car Accidents in Delaware 
Each day, most people get into a vehicle to travel to and from their destinations. It is easy to take our safety for granted when we are in a car, as driving can easily seem like a routine and normal activity. However, the dangers of the roadway are never apparent until the moment that a crash occurs. Car accidents typically take place very suddenly and unexpectedly, leaving victims and family members in a very difficult position. In an average year, about 8,000 people are hurt in crashes that take place on Delaware’s roadways. About 10% of these victims will suffer serious injuries.
Authorities will conduct a thorough investigation following an accident. Police may speak with witnesses, take photographs and measurements at the scene, and observe the position of vehicles after the crash. During this process, they will also complete a crash report. The crash report is important because it details who was at fault for the collision. This report may then be used by injured victims to show that the other driver should be held legally accountable.
