The relatively recent increase in traffic fatalities in Kentucky and around the country has alarmed many road safety advocates. Unfortunately, some sophisticated electronic equipment found in modern vehicles could actually be contributing to the problem. While the newest cars, SUVs and pickup trucks often feature autonomous safety systems that can anticipate accidents and take evasive action automatically, they're also quiet, comfortable and isolate motorists from the road.
You just got into a car accident. Now what?
For those that have been in a car accident before, they know how harrowing the aftermath of the wreck can be.
