Kentucky Car Accidents

Each year, Lexington and surrounding areas see a significant number of car accidents—on major routes like New Circle Road and Nicholasville Road, as well as quieter residential streets and rural highways. Many of these collisions result in serious injuries, and unfortunately, some are fatal. In numerous cases, these crashes could have been prevented, often caused by distracted driving, speeding, running red lights, or driving under the influence.

Across the United States, more than 40,000 people die in traffic accidents each year, with countless others sustaining injuries that impact their daily lives. In Kentucky, reckless and impaired driving remain leading contributors to serious crashes. Victims often face long hospital stays, lost wages, emotional strain, and months—or even years—of recovery.
