'If you know what causes the majority of car accidents, you're way ahead of most people and a whole lot safer,' says David Jensen, editor of the Newburgh Accident Attorney Personal Injury Guide. 'But to reduce the chance of a motor vehicle accident', he continues, 'you also have to change some of your driving habits. That's why we put this information into a free guide.'

According to Risk Management News, nearly 40% of all dollars paid out on automobile accident claims are connected to just one specific type of accident... full details included in the free report available at http://www.newburghinjuryattorney.com/3 (no email required).


What causes most car accidents? Here are the 'Big 7' common distractions:

1. Reaching or looking for items in the car
2. Rubber necking
3. using a mobile phone while driving a car (drivers using cell phones are 4 times more likely to be in a motor vehicle collision)
4. Adjusting the radio or GPS
5. Eating
6. Grooming
7. Children and pets
Data sources: Risk control Services, CAN; New England Journal of Medicine

The free report also offers immediately useful tips on:

- The one driver distraction that increases your likelihood of getting into a Motor Vehicle Accident by over 400% (it's not what you think)
- Three simple steps you can take to reduce the liklihood of of getting into a car accident.

Financial compensation for Motor Vehicle Accident victims can reach considerable amounts. According to Newburgh accident lawyer, Finkelstein & Partners LLP, awards won for car accident victim clients have reached $700,000 to $13,500,000. Sadly, no amount of financial compensation can bring back any kind of a normal life for victims. Many will never walk again. Others struggle with serious lifelong medical challenges.

But there is much a driver can do to prevent a car accident from happening in the first place.
