How many teenagers die each year from car crashes?

Accidents cause the most deaths annually in the United States. Car, boating, gun, fire, and even freak accidents cause tens of thousands of deaths each year. The most common type of accident, particularly among teens, is car accidents. The chances of a sixteen-year-old driver being in a fatal car accident are five times greater than those of a twenty-year-old driver. Each year, there are 1.6 million car crashes involving teens. Every year, more American teenagers die in car wrecks than any other way. Nationally, that number was 5,610 fatalities in 2004. Statistics from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety show that alcohol is a factor in only 15 percent of the 16- and 17-year-old drivers killed in 2004 car wrecks in the U.S.
