There is no end to the motor accidents; as a consequence, personal injuries and insurance claims are here to stay. No matter how far we have advanced in designing safe cars, vehicle accidents will pile up because what science can guarantee is only safe cars but not safe drivers.

•  In the United States alone, there are more than 200,500,000 licensed drivers. As of 2003, an average of 7 million motor vehicle accidents is reported, causing well over 3.5 million injuries.

•  Property damage caused by car accidents is $4,900 per second. Damage of $25,000 would be recorded in the time you took to read this fact.

•  Current statistics show that most American drivers have a near motor vehicle accident 1 to 3 times per month and get involved in a collision of some type on the average of every 8 years; these records also indicate that licensed teenagers are 22 times more likely to get a speeding ticket than those who are 60 years of age or older.

•  In 1896 there were only four cars registered in all the United States . Two of them collided with each other in St. Louis .

•  By the year 2025 there will be 33 million people 70 years or older in America . This segment of the population will be growing 2.5 as fast as the total population. They will be responsible for the largest percentage of the "turning left" and "rear end" accidents. Slowly but surely Senior Citizens have developed a higher accident ratio than teenagers. (This will, in time, seriously impact the typical Senior Citizen's pocketbook). And also, by 2025, the total costs for motor vehicle accidents in the United States will exceed 450 billion dollars.
