Car Accidents in Utah
Each year, car accidents disrupt the lives of thousands of Utah residents. In 2023 alone, the Utah Department of Public Safety recorded more than 61,000 crashes across the state. Whether on busy city streets or smaller local roads, motor vehicle accidents often leave victims facing long recoveries, emotional trauma, and financial challenges.
Knowing the leading causes of accidents can help improve road safety. Common contributors include:
- Distracted Driving: Distractions such as texting, talking on the phone, or eating can lead to crashes in an instant.
- Speeding: Driving too fast reduces a driver’s reaction time and increases the severity of crashes.
- Weather Conditions: Snow, rain, fog, and ice in Utah create hazardous driving situations, especially during the winter months.
- Fatigue: Tired drivers have impaired judgment and slower reaction times, making fatigue a significant risk factor.
- Failure to Yield: Misjudgments at intersections and during merges often cause serious side-impact collisions.
- Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol and drug impairment remain a leading cause of preventable crashes across the state.
