Car Accidents in Louisiana
Each year, tens of thousands of people are left with serious injuries as a result of motor vehicle accidents across the state of Louisiana.

In our state, some of the leading causes of motor vehicle accidents include:
- Drivers who are impaired by drugs or alcohol
- Drivers who engage in reckless driving behaviors
- Drivers who are distracted by phones, food, or others in their vehicle
- Drivers who fall asleep while behind the wheel
- Motor vehicle part defects or malfunctions
