Helping Victims of Car, Truck & Motorcycle Crashes in KY
As two of the most densely populated counties in Kentucky, it's no surprise that both Jefferson County and Fayette County ranked in the top three among the states most dangerous for drivers in 2008.

In metropolitan areas like Louisville and Lexington, vehicle accidents commonly occur in high-traffic areas such as:

I-75
I-64
Bert T. Combs Mountain Parkway
Bluegrass Parkway
New Circle Road
Man O' War Boulevard

But roads and highways in smaller communities such as Stanton, Mt. Sterling and Cynthiana can also be dangerous. Serious injuries and death can also occur on the state's waterways, as the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows that boating accidents have been steadily increasing in Kentucky since the late 1990s.
