This is a 17 percent decrease from 2019, which authorities believe is partially due to the impact of pandemic travel restrictions. Other details from the report include:\n\n- One person was injured every 73 minutes in a car crash\n- 30 percent of fatal crashes involved alcohol\n- An auto accident occurred every 22 minutes\n- 10 percent of the fatally injured were under age 21\n- The most dangerous day to be out on the road is Saturday\n- The most dangerous time is midnight to 4:00am\n\nThe report also notes that these [traffic accidents](https:\/\/www.smflegal.com\/2015\/11\/19\/aggressive-driving-road-rage-and-traffic-accidents-in-delaware\/) come at an economic loss of over one billion dollars.\n\n## What you should know about car insurance minimums in Delaware\nOne of the biggest concerns our clients have is insurance – especially when they’re hit by drivers who don’t have any.\n\nDelaware requires a 25\/50\/10 minimum for insurance. That means:\n\n- \\$25,000 in [bodily injury](https:\/\/www.smflegal.com\/2020\/12\/03\/what-is-the-difference-between-pip-and-bodily-injury-insurance\/) per person\n- \\$50,000 liability per accident\n- \\$10,00 in property damage\n\nYou are also required to buy personal injury protection, or PIP. Those minimum limits are:\n\n- \\$15,000 for bodily injury per person\n- \\$30,000 per occurrence\n- \\$5,000 in funeral costs\n\nLet us be clear: **This is [not enough insurance](https:\/\/www.smflegal.com\/2023\/02\/27\/what-are-my-options-if-the-other-driver-doesnt-have-enough-insurance\/)**. It is in your best interest to purchase additional coverage for yourself, well as additional uninsured\/underinsured motorist coverage (UM\/UIM) for yourself, to cover any gaps in payment that could occur if you are hit by a driver with the minimum amount of insurance, or in the case of a hit-and-run.\n\n**Related:**\n\n- [How Do I Handle My Bills while Waiting for My Insurance Settlement?](https:\/\/www.smflegal.com\/2020\/06\/25\/how-do-i-handle-my-bills-while-waiting-for-my-insurance-settlement\/)\n\n![Delaware Auto Accident Attorneys](data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20601%20600'%3E%3C\/svg%3E)\n\n![Delaware Auto Accident Attorneys](https:\/\/www.smflegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Auto-Accidents600.jpg)\n\n## How can your Delaware car accident lawyers help me?\nAt Silverman, McDonald & Friedman, we believe that information is key.

Delaware has the dubious distinction of being one of the [worst states for pedestrians](http://money.cnn.com/2017/04/13/technology/pedestrian-safety-florida-delaware/index.html), but other drivers and passengers are also at risk of being injured on our roadways, especially by drunk drivers. If you were hurt in an accident on US 13, US 40, US 2, I-95, or any state or local road, we want to help. Our Delaware car crash lawyers handle a wide array of claims involving: - [Head-on collisions](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/head-on-collisions/) - [Broadside collisions](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/broadside-collisions/) - [Rear-end collisions](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/rear-end-collisions/) - [Multi-car collisions](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/multi-car-collisions/) - [Accidents involving commercial trucks](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/truck-accidents/) - [Accident involving motorcycle riders](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/motorcycle-accidents/) - [Accidents involving pedestrians or bicyclists](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/bike-accident-lawyers/) - [Accidents involving stationary objects](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/stationary-objects/) - Accidents in [construction zones](https://www.smflegal.com/2018/12/13/road-construction-zones-workers-in-danger/) - Injuries caused by [distracted drivers](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/distracted-driving/) - Injuries caused by [drunk drivers](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/drunk-driving/) - Injuries caused by [defective auto parts](https://www.smflegal.com/practice-areas/auto-accidents/defective-auto-parts/) Our team of lawyers works closely with your doctors and with witnesses to the crash, and handles [correspondence with the insurance companies](https://www.smflegal.com/2024/01/05/should-i-just-settle-my-car-accident-claim-with-the-insurance-company/). We collect evidence that documents your injuries in order to build your case for compensation. ## How common are car crashes in Delaware? The Delaware State Police reports a total of [29,150 traffic crashes](https://dsp.delaware.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/118/2021/04/2020-Annual-Traffic-Report.pdf) in 2020, resulting in 117 deaths and 7,254 injuries. This is a 17 percent decrease from 2019, which authorities believe is partially due to the impact of pandemic travel restrictions. Other details from the report include: - One person was injured every 73 minutes in a car crash - 30 percent of fatal crashes involved alcohol - An auto accident occurred every 22 minutes - 10 percent of the fatally injured were under age 21 - The most dangerous day to be out on the road is Saturday - The most dangerous time is midnight to 4:00am The report also notes that these [traffic accidents](https://www.smflegal.com/2015/11/19/aggressive-driving-road-rage-and-traffic-accidents-in-delaware/) come at an economic loss of over one billion dollars. ## What you should know about car insurance minimums in Delaware One of the biggest concerns our clients have is insurance – especially when they’re hit by drivers who don’t have any. Delaware requires a 25/50/10 minimum for insurance. That means: - \$25,000 in [bodily injury](https://www.smflegal.com/2020/12/03/what-is-the-difference-between-pip-and-bodily-injury-insurance/) per person - \$50,000 liability per accident - \$10,00 in property damage You are also required to buy personal injury protection, or PIP. Those minimum limits are: - \$15,000 for bodily injury per person - \$30,000 per occurrence - \$5,000 in funeral costs Let us be clear: This is [not enough insurance](https://www.smflegal.com/2023/02/27/what-are-my-options-if-the-other-driver-doesnt-have-enough-insurance/). It is in your best interest to purchase additional coverage for yourself, well as additional uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) for yourself, to cover any gaps in payment that could occur if you are hit by a driver with the minimum amount of insurance, or in the case of a hit-and-run.
