I did some research this morning on car accident risk factors and cause statistics. There are several factors that all interplay with each other – basically if you do one, you increase your rate of car accidents but if you do two you multiply your risk levels of getting into a car accident.

- Alcohol consumption
- Being under 25 years old
- Speeding

- Vehicle defects
- Potholes
- Ice or snow
- Tire blowouts
- Fog
