Coos Bay Auto Accident Injury Attorneys
As reported in ODOT’s most current research, in 2023 there were nearly 47,000 vehicle crashes statewide just last year; this means that almost 4,000 automobile accidents occur in Oregon on a monthly basis! Significantly, 39,000 of those accidents resulted in injury, almost half of which were major or serious injuries, and sadly 529 traffic related deaths occurred.
Nobody gets in their vehicle each morning planning to have an accident, however, the truth is this occurs even to the most discerning drivers, and it could happen to you or someone that you care about.

The most typical reason behind vehicle accidents is ‘driver error’:
- Failing to avoid non-moving and parked vehicles (rear-end)
- Failing to yield right-of-way to other vehicles, bicycles, or pedestrians
- Traveling at a high rate of speed
- Driving too fast for conditions
- Distracted operator: glancing at mobile phones, reading a map, eating
- Incorrect lane change
- Driver fatigue
- DUII – driving under the influence of intoxicants
