Boating Accidents

Boating Accidents 

At a time when boating is at an all-time high, the threat of fatal boating accidents serve as a harsh reminder of the importance of education and safety. According to the United States Coast Guard, 5,438 boating accidents were reported in 2006. These accidents were the cause of 3,474 injuries,710 fatalities and over $43 million in property damage.

At the time of most accidents, drivers are either not paying attention, drinking, acting recklessly, operating at dangerous speeds, and/or they are inexperienced boaters. Alcohol use was cited as the leading cause of fatal boating accidents with 20% fatalities. Sadly, this lack of safety results in tragic consequences for innocent people.
