Statistics - In The News
In 2007, there were 6,023,821 traffic crashes caused by negligent drivers reported to the Property and Casualty Insurance industry in the U.S. The negligent drivers' average costs for police and fire services, nationally is $2.3 Billion. These costs are currently subsidized by innocent property taxpayers, over and above the insurance premiums paid by drivers.Property taxes are designed to pay for Fire Departments to be on ready stand-by to protect homes, business and citizens from fire. Property taxes pay for Law Enforcement to protect property and citizens from crime. Similar to Emergency Medical Services (EMS), which is paid by the Health Insurance Industry, traffic crash response is outside the scope of the primary function of both law enforcement and fire services.
Property taxpayers are currently subsidizing the insurance companies' investigation and reporting costs as well as the cost of negligent drivers that do not pay property taxes in their community. In some instances, the negligent drivers do not even live in the State.
While the insurance industry continues to collect legally mandated premiums for liabilities caused by negligence, public safety costs are on the rise while budgets for services are being cut in the United States. Law Enforcement response costs to innocent taxpayers for NON-resident use is $427 million and fire response costs to innocent taxpayers for NON-resident use is $511 million.
This is a critical public safety issue that is placing all citizens at risk.

Why Do You Need CRC?
There are so many examples of what is happening throughout the nation that we cannot possibly show you all of them. But please browse our articles that support the facts: Budgets for public safety have been and still are dwindling. At risk are everyday resources that we take for granted: Our safety, our health, our property, the stability of our communities and our very lives. Safety service providers need us to help recover funds from those who take these things away from us through their actions. At CRC, we know the "who and how" needed to get these funds back into budgets and we know it better than any other company in the nation.Click this image to browse a collection of articles supporting the decision to go with CRC:
