There are more fatal traffic accidents during the Fourth of  July weekend than any other weekend of the year. More than 400 Americans are  expected to die on the highways over the holiday weekend.
July fourth is  typically the worst day of the year for traffic fatalities. Although data from  the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety shows July fourth is the deadliest  day to travel, six of the 10 days with the most deaths were also holidays or  near holidays. July 2 and July 3 are also in the top 10 worst days to travel.
Also, more  motorcyclists are killed on July fourth than any other day.
As you might have  guessed, with the weekend barbeques and drinking, 41 percent of the deaths on  July fourth involved people with high blood alcohol concentrations, as did 51  percent of the deaths on January first.
