Did You Know?

An average of 42,000 people die as a result of car accidents and collisions each year in the United States alone.

Approximately 115 people die each day in the US as a result of car accidents. This amounts to 1 death per every 13 minutes.

Alcohol use is a factor in 2 out of every 5 car accidents.

In 2007, 13,811 passengers of vehicles and motorcycles died as a result of crashes.

In 2007, 26,801 drivers of vehicles and motorcycles diet as a result of crashes.

At Gregg, Farris & Bumpers, as personal injury attorneys, many of our clients are injured by drunk drivers. We believe these cases have a greater value than ordinary car wreck cases. They are very similar to accidents involving big trucks such as 18-wheelers in that jurors are not sympathetic to such defendants.
