Factors Contributing to High Speed Car Accidents
High speed impact crashes often leave accident victims with debilitating injuries and expensive medical bills. Additionally, high speed car accidents can be fatal. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 10.2 million people in 2008 died as a direct result of a motor vehicle accident. About 30 percent of all traffic fatalities can be attributed to driving above the speed limit.
Oftentimes, high speed collisions happen on highways where the nature of the road allows motorists to reach speeds they wouldnt be able to on smaller, inner-city roads.
These types of accidents are typically caused by a careless driver, reckless or aggressive driving techniques, drivers who are distracted or failure to follow the rules of the road.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), road design plays a huge role in the occurrence of speed-related accidents. In their report, after examining crash statistics from 2002, about 40 percent of high-speed related fatalities happened when the driver took a curve. This is more than double the amount of fatalities that occurred in non-speeding related crashes under similar road conditions.
High Speed Car Accident Damages
The severity of injuries incurred can be directly related to the speed of the vehicles in the collision. Generally, cars moving at slower speeds when colliding will cause less serious injuries as opposed to those incurred will driving fast.
Along the same lines, the faster a vehicle is traveling when it crashes, the more property damage that the vehicle will sustain.
Extensive property damage and debilitating injuries can become expensive. At Phillips Law Group, our personal injury lawyers in Phoenix believe that if your losses were caused by the actions or negligence of another driver, they should be held accountable.
With the help of an experienced car accident lawyer, crash victims increase their chances of recovering fair compensation for damages related to the wreck.

High speed car accidents could easily be classified as one of the most avoidable type of auto accident. Arizona rules of the road, such as speed limits, were put in place in order to keep drivers safe. By not following these laws, motorists put themselves and other drivers at risk of sustaining injuries and property damage.
Despite unrelenting reminders of the dangers of speeding, many drivers are more worried about reaching their destination quickly rather than the risks they are taking behind the wheel.
High speed car accident victims may be able to file a claim in order to recover damages, such as medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A knowledgeable attorney at Phillips Law Group can evaluate the merits of your potential lawsuit and guide you on the best course of action in pursuing legal remedies for your condition.

Great experience! Took care of pretty much everything, and I always felt like I want in good hands. Caroline Fa. was also a great help with everything. She always returned my calls and I never felt unheard. Even after my case she would still help me with my insurance documents.

Working at Phillips Law Group has been great the 1st few years in I noticed how well organized and run this Firm was from Intake to Settlement the Client has the expertise of a staff member uniquely qualified for the particular stage of each Clients claim and all other Law firms try to emulate what we do here but none quite get it right because they lack one major component “Compassion”. We are a FAMILY not just a group of people/employees. We care deeply about each other and our clients’ we are considerate, compassionate and make sure that all our Clients’ needs are met from beginning to end. That’s because we treat our clients just like we treat each other. Nothing like walking through the office and saying Hello to fellow employees who always seem to be smiling. 16yrs in and it only seems to be getting better.

I tried a few previous law firms and none would take my car accident case with confidence they could get my anything. Phillips law group took my case and although it took around 4 years to get this case settled as I was in treatment, they never let up with insurance adjusters and they got me as much money as possible. They worked hard for me and advocated for me. Shoutout to key individuals who worked my case nonstop of the years, Robert Ross & Jasmine, you are AMAZING!
