Aurora, Illinois is a dynamic city that’s home to a diverse population and a unique mix of cultural opportunities.
Sitting 37 miles west of Chicago, Aurora is Illinois’ second-largest city and geographically extends into DuPage, Kane, Kendall, and Will Counties.
With over 200,000 residents and a steady flow of visitors and commuters coming in each day, Aurora’s streets are busy.
While this means that Aurora has a lot going on, it also means that automobile accidents are common.
Dealing with an auto accident is stressful.

Car accidents are common in Aurora, DuPage County, Kane County, Kendall County, Will County, the Chicago area, and Illinois.
In fact, DuPage County has the second-highest frequency of auto accidents in the state.
The following statistics outline the frequency and gravity of these accidents:
Car crashes are still very common, even with increased safety standards, advances in automobile technology, and countless public awareness campaigns.
Many car accidents can be prevented, and most are due to driver errors.
These are the most common causes of auto accidents in the United States:
Distracted Driving
The number one cause of car accidents is distracted driving.
Unfortunately, distracted driving has become increasingly common, with drivers being distracted by their phones, food, makeup, and other interruptions.
Just a split second of inattention behind the wheel can have severe, and even fatal, consequences.
Driving Impaired
Operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is illegal, and it’s also incredibly dangerous.
Drunk driving and driving under the influence are still leading causes of vehicle accident deaths and severe injuries.
Excessive Speed
The second most common cause of car accidents in the United States is excessive speed.
Drivers who ignore speed limits and drive too fast have less control over their vehicles and less time to react when necessary.
Reckless Driving
Reckless driving encompasses situations when drivers ignore traffic laws and signals, handle their vehicles carelessly, or drive in an overly aggressive manner.
Reckless driving is often a symptom of “road rage,” overzealousness, or lack of situational awareness.
Driving in Bad Weather
Drivers need to take extra precautions when operating their vehicles in rain, ice, snow, fog, and even heavy wind.
Accidents are more likely to happen in poor weather conditions when drivers do not keep a safe distance from other automobiles, drive at too fast of speeds, do not increase their stopping times, or when they don’t give themselves enough time to arrive at their destination.
Auto accident injuries can be severe, and both drivers and passengers can be affected.
In fact, 4,832 DuPage County auto accidents involved injuries in 2018.
The most common car accident injuries in the United States are:
If you’re involved in an auto accident, whether minor or severe, it’s important to seek out proper medical care.
Some common auto accident injuries are not immediately recognizable or can become more serious later on.
Certified medical professionals can better recognize internal and less obvious injuries that could lead to complications if left untreated.
You should do everything in your power to mitigate your injuries by seeking medical attention right away and following the doctor’s orders.
This decision could greatly aid the success of a future potential Aurora car accident lawsuit.

If you’ve heard the tagline “Seat Belts Save Lives,” know that it’s the truth.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, seat belts saved the lives of an estimated 14,668 U.S. passenger vehicle occupants in 2016.
Wearing a seatbelt is safe, and it’s the law.
Illinois law requires that all occupants in a vehicle, regardless of their seating position, wear a properly adjusted and fastened safety belt.
The driver is responsible for ensuring that all passengers are wearing seatbelts, and failure to do so results in fines that begin at $25.
The Child Passenger Protection Act requires that all children 8 years or younger be properly secured in a CPPA-approved child safety seat.
To learn more about Illinois, child, safety seat standards and safety belt laws, penalties, and exemptions, visit Buckle Up Illinois.
As previously mentioned, most vehicle accidents are because of driver error and negligence.
This means that many car accidents can be prevented, and there are steps drivers can take to increase their safety on the road.
Here are steps to take while driving to prevent car accidents:
If you’re in a car accident, being prepared will make the situation less stressful.
Here are the five steps to take after an automobile accident:
1. Stop! Do Not Drive Away
Never drive away after a car accident.
It is illegal, and it will make your situation more complicated.
Instead, shift your vehicle into the park, turn the engine off, and turn on your hazard lights.
Find a safe path that is outside of harm’s way before you leave the vehicle.
2. Contact Police and Medical Personnel
If the accident is an emergency, call 9-1-1 to contact the police and medical personnel.
If none of the vehicles are blocking traffic and no one is injured, call the Aurora Police Department’s non-emergency number at 630-256-5000 and report your accident.
Follow the instructions of the police and medical personnel.
3. Document the Accident and Contact Your Insurance Company
You must document your accident beyond the police report.
Take photos of any vehicle damage, injuries, and the road where the accident happened.
Take detailed notes describing how the accident happened, the time, and the date.
Record all parties’ names, numbers, license plates, and insurance information, and do not admit fault (read on to learn why).
Do not sign off on any documents unless they are from the police or medical personnel.
Contact your insurance agent as soon as you can do so.
4. Track All Medical Expenses and Treatments
If you are injured, make sure you receive sufficient medical care and attention.
Track all of your medical billing expenses and treatments along the way.
This will help your car accident lawyer and/or insurance agent guarantee that you receive the compensation you deserve.
5. Hire an Experienced Aurora Car Accident Lawyer
Finding an experienced car accident lawyer will help to ensure that your case is as strong as possible.
Working with an auto accident attorney increases your chances of receiving full compensation for damages and personal injury claims, including medical expenses, lost wages, and vehicle damage.
Be aware that Illinois’ statute of limitations requires you to file your claim within two years.

There is no reason you should ever admit or accept fault at the scene of an accident.
Even if you think you might be at fault, do not admit fault.
Auto accident fault is complex, and it is determined by a variety of situational details and laws.
There is also a good chance that other involved parties are at least partially at fault.
Leave the determination to legal experts.
If you do claim fault at the scene, other involved parties can use that in future hearings, deliberations, and arbitrations.
If you feel like you are being pressured to admit fault, remain calm and politely reaffirm your right to refuse to question.
Again, do not admit fault, and wait for your Aurora car accident lawyer to handle the situation.
