Car accidents are one of the leading causes of injury and death in the state of Florida. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accident fatalities increased by more than 9% in 2016. This represented the largest annual increase in the number of highway accident fatalities since the government started recording this statistical data in 1975.
