Kentucky Car Accidents

Car accidents remain a persistent danger on Lexington’s roads. Every year, thousands of crashes occur across the city and surrounding Fayette County, many resulting in life-changing injuries or worse. Statewide, Kentucky sees over 100,000 motor vehicle accidents annually, and a large portion of them are tied to preventable driver mistakes.

From New Circle Road to Nicholasville Road and beyond, Lexington’s streets are no stranger to collisions caused by speeding, distracted driving, fatigue, or impairment. These reckless behaviors are responsible for the majority of serious injury crashes not only in Kentucky but across the nation.

For victims, a car crash can mean far more than vehicle damage. It can lead to:

• Hospital stays and long-term medical treatment
• Lost wages and time away from work
• Lasting physical pain or disability
