In 2008, there were approximately 10.8 million motor vehicle crashes reported in the United States. This figure includes all types of collisions, from minor fender benders to more serious accidents. The year saw a slight decrease in the number of crashes compared to previous years, influenced by factors such as economic conditions and changes in driving behavior. For more specific statistics, it may be helpful to consult official reports from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

How many accidents are caused by old drivers?

According to a NHTSA, in 2008 189,000 persons 65 or older were injured or killed in car collisions, out of 2,383,000. That is roughly 8% of all collision injuries or fatalities that year, a lower percentage than all other age groups except those 15 years and under. How many of those collisions were caused by the older driver is hard to say, but certainly not ALL these collisions were caused by the older driver. Lets say 2/3rds were caused by the older driver, that would mean about 5% of injury/fatality collisions were caused by an older driver in 2008. That means 95% of these collisions are caused by drivers in other age groups. Doesn't that kind of make you wonder why they are making such a big deal over car crashes by older people and not those in other age groups???!!!
