In Wyoming, car accident statistics highlight significant concerns related to road safety. In 2021, Wyoming had one of the higher rates of car accident deaths in the United States, with 22 deaths per 100,000 people and 1.30 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (World Population Review).
More detailed statistics for 2022 reported by the Wyoming Highway Patrol indicate there were 123 fatalities across 107 fatal crashes. A notable issue was the lack of vehicle restraint use, which played a substantial role in the fatalities; for instance, 62 of these deaths were attributed to not using seat belts or other restraints. This issue was particularly pronounced in rollover crashes, where 82% of those who died were not restrained.
These statistics underline the importance of road safety measures, especially the use of proper vehicle restraints to reduce fatalities and injuries on Wyoming roads.
