Why Do Fatalities and Serious Injury Crashes Happen in Weber & Davis County?

The 2023 crash data for Utah reveals troubling trends:

  • Failed to keep in lane: the leading cause of fatal crashes at 32%.
  • Running off the road and failure to yield: each responsible for 12% of deadly crashes.
  • Too fast for conditions and overcorrecting: also major factors.
  • Speed contributed to nearly 30% of traffic deaths, and impaired driving accounted for 17% of fatalities statewide.

Weber and Davis Counties, with their mix of busy urban roads and high-speed highways, see a significant number of collisions — many involving large trucks, where the stakes are even higher. These conditions lead to more fatalities and serious injuries for residents.
