Deadly Facts About Speeding

Speeding causes thousands of accidents each year, leaving innocent victims with serious, painful and sometimes permanent injuries. And quite often, the results are fatal. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Traffic Safety Facts for 2012, there were more than 10,000 speeding-related traffic fatalities in the U.S. This accounted for almost a third of all traffic fatalities in 2012. In Florida alone, there were 361 deaths caused by speeding.

Speeding Causes Worse Injuries

The speed at which a vehicle travels is directly related to the amount of force it has in an accident, and affects the severity of injuries suffered by those involved in the accident. This is particularly true for pedestrians and cyclists. Those who choose to drive at excessive speeds put others in increased and unnecessary danger in the event of an accident. Speeding drivers who break the law and cause injuries to others through their reckless behavior should be held accountable.
