Car accidents are near daily part of our lives – we turn on the radio each morning to traffic news of accidents, fender benders, and lane closures that impacts our daily commute to and from work. So how many auto accidents are there in Virginia? Below is an infographic that we’ve created showing the number of auto accidents in Virginia from 1999 to 2011, with all of the information coming from the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles.
As you can see, auto accidents were on a steady rise until a peak in 2003, and have been in decline ever since. Still, there are over 100,000 auto accidents every year, many caused by the negligence of others.
