As July begins, multiple sources and reports are sharing the results of the recent accident reports. Motor vehicle fatalities in New York are up to the highest level in a decade.

This is the time of the year that people are most distracted when they drive and the time of the year when there are more people on the roads. Kids on bikes, motorcycles, people walking or running are all reasons to stay more alert when you drive.
