In spite of enhanced safety features and increased penalties for drunk driving and other traffic-related offenses, fatal car accidents continue to be a common occurrence throughout the United States. In 2008 alone, more than 37,000 people lost their lives in traffic-related accidents nationwide (according to statistics compiled by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). California continues to lead the nation in the number of auto accident fatalities every year, with 3,434 in 2008.
