Are car accidents on the rise in California?

The Roberts Law Firm

I wouldn't say that car accidents are on the rise. In fact, I think that there's more of a prevalence of people being more careful now. Particularly in California, they've recently passed a law that requires you to wear a headpiece when you use a phone, which I'm seeing a lot of drivers using. I understand that insurance companies are reporting that auto accidents are down because they're using a lot more driver safety programs, particularly with their newer drivers that are coming on to their programs. So, there's not an abundance of more accidents. I'm Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law Firm, a full service, personal injury law firm in Southern California.
