About Auto Accidents in Huntsville, Alabama

Huntsville is located primarily in Madison County and, in fact, is the seat of Madison County.

In 2013, there were 21 fatalities resulting from auto accidents, four of which involved an impaired driver. Just across the state line, however, the city of Knoxville, Tennessee made the list of the ten most dangerous cities, as far as impaired drivers and fatal accidents. From 2010 to 2012, Knoxville recorded 31 fatal alcohol-related crashes, which is three times as many, per capita, than the national average. During the same time period, Huntsville, with nearly the same population as Knoxville, recorded only 12 fatal alcohol-related crashes.

Taken as a whole, however, in 2015 the state of Alabama ranked as the seventh highest state for motor vehicle deaths. The rate of auto accident deaths in the state of Alabama is 13.7 per 100,000 population, while the national rate of auto accident deaths is 7.0, according to the Centers for Disease Control. While it would be easy to jump to the conclusion that Alabama residents are just bad drivers, the Alabama Department of Public Health feels the higher rate of auto accident fatalities is due to the fact that a large portion of the population live in rural areas where hospitals may be few and far between.

In other words, being in an auto accident on a rural road could lead to precious minutes being lost during the time it takes for an ambulance to arrive. The hour following an automobile accident is known as the “golden hour” for those involved in the accident. Victims of a car crash are much more likely to survive if they can get to a trauma center within an hour following the accident. There could also be certain lifestyle factors involved in the high rates of traffic fatalities in Alabama. As an example, people tend to drive longer distances to social events, shopping, and school when they live in a rural area. Those who live in rural areas also have a tendency to drive faster, therefore if an auto accident occurs, the damage is likely to be much more serious.

What You Deserve After Your Auto Accident

If you have been involved in a Huntsville, Alabama car accident, you are likely shaken up, and may not be able to make the best decisions during this time. You could have relatively minor injuries or more serious injuries which could lead to a permanent disability. Your Huntsville, Alabama auto accident attorney will offer you organization, documentation and preparation in order to successfully work through any disputes and achieve the settlement you need and deserve. Your auto accident attorney is skilled at valuing your claim correctly, then presenting the specific evidence which will allow you to be compensated for your medical expenses, your pain and suffering, and any other damages you have suffered.
