Kentucky Car Accidents

Every day in Kentucky, car accidents disrupt lives—over 150,000 traffic collisions are reported annually across the Bluegrass State. These crashes lead to more than 25,000 injuries and claim over 600 lives each year. Tragically, most of these accidents are the direct result of driver negligence.

When drivers act recklessly—whether by speeding, driving under the influence, falling asleep at the wheel, or letting distractions take over—they put everyone on the road at risk. Victims of these preventable collisions often suffer life-altering injuries that require long hospital stays and ongoing treatment. The physical, emotional, and financial toll can be overwhelming for victims and their families.

Distracted driving has become the leading form of negligence on American roads today, contributing to hundreds of thousands of crashes and thousands of fatalities each year. Despite increased awareness, the issue continues to grow.
