Traffic Accidents in North Carolina  Yadkinville, NC - 7-Year-Old Girl Critically Hurt in Crash on East Lee Ave.

Traffic crashes take place across North Carolina multiple times every day. These collisions happen on busy roads and also along quiet city streets. According to the North Carolina Department of Transportation, there were nearly 100,000 reported accidents in our state last year. While not all of these collisions were caused by negligent drivers, many of them were. Police must carefully investigate each crash in order to determine the cause and which driver should be held responsible.

When a crash involves a pedestrian, the facts surrounding the accident can be complicated. In many cases, there are no witnesses to the crash itself, other than the driver and the pedestrian. Pedestrian accidents occur very suddenly, which further makes it difficult to decide exactly how the crash took place. Police will seek to interview any witnesses, and will look at the crash scene to conduct a reconstruction of the accident.
