How many reported car accidents were there in Orange County in 2025?

Orange County reported 25,371 crashes in 2025. The following breakdown includes different road users and crash outcomes.

25,371 – Total crashes

The annual total averages approximately 70 reported crashes each day. It includes traffic collisions across multiple listed categories, not just crashes between passenger cars.

174 – Fatalities from all crashes

The figures record 174 lives lost in traffic crashes. This measures deaths associated with the collisions, rather than the number of individual fatal incidents.

19,020 – Injuries from all crashes

Orange County recorded 19,020 injuries. The total does not show each person’s treatment needs, time away from work or long-term limitations.

162 – Total fatal crashes

There were 162 crashes involving a fatality. A single collision can cause multiple deaths, which is why the fatality count is higher.

12,439 – Total injury crashes

Approximately 49% of the county’s reported crashes were classified as injury crashes. This counts collisions involving injuries, not the number of people injured in them.

685 – Total bicycle crashes

The county recorded 685 bicycle crashes. These incidents require attention to the cyclist’s route, nearby vehicles, road markings and evidence of the collision itself.

14 – Total bicycle fatalities

Fourteen bicycle fatalities were reported.

520 – Total motorcycle crashes

There were 520 motorcycle crashes during the year. The annual count alone does not establish how often riders crashed relative to the miles they traveled.

44 – Total motorcycle fatalities

The data includes 44 motorcycle fatalities. 

732 – Total pedestrian crashes

Orange County reported 732 pedestrian crashes, averaging about two per day. These are countywide figures and should not be presented as crashes occurring only within Orlando.

48 – Total pedestrian fatalities

Forty-eight pedestrian fatalities were recorded. The figure reflects the loss of life associated with this category, without identifying the cause of each incident.

6,232 –  Total hit-and-run crashes

Hit-and-run crashes represented approximately 24.6% of all reported crashes. That makes identifying vehicles, witnesses, and available footage a relevant concern for many injured people.

18 –  Total hit-and-run fatalities

Eighteen fatalities were associated with hit-and-run crashes. 

1,524 – Total hit-and-run injuries

There were 1,524 recorded injuries from hit-and-run crashes. 

Is Orlando in Orange County?

Yes. Orlando is in Orange County, Florida. The county also includes communities such as Winter Park, Ocoee, and Winter Garden, as identified by Orange County Government. A countywide crash total therefore covers a broader area than the City of Orlando.

Broward Crash℠, Injury Law Firm represents accident victims throughout Florida from its Fort Lauderdale office, including people injured in Orange County.

How common are hit-and-run car crashes in Orange County?

Hit-and-run crashes accounted for nearly one-quarter of Orange County’s reported collisions in 2025. The 6,232 incidents work out to approximately 17 per day across the year. For victims left without the other driver’s information, locating evidence, and reviewing insurance options can become immediate concerns.

If the driver leaves, details that seem incomplete can still be useful. A partial plate, vehicle color, nearby camera, or witness’s description may help establish what happened. 

Are injuries common from Orange County hit and run accidents?

The recorded 1,524 injuries show that hit-and-run crashes caused substantial harm during 2025. However, that injury count cannot tell us the percentage of hit-and-run crashes that injured someone: one crash may affect several people. The number of separate injury-producing hit-and-run incidents would be needed to calculate that percentage.

How many hit-and-run crashes happened in Orange County in 2025?

The reported total was 6,232 hit-and-run crashes. If yours was one of them, the next question is what can be established about the departing vehicle and which potential sources of recovery deserve investigation. The missing driver’s identity is one issue; the insurance available to an injured person is another.

Depending on the policy and circumstances, uninsured motorist coverage may be relevant. Coverage should be reviewed rather than assumed. Broward Crash℠, Injury Law Firm examines the available records and insurance information so clients can understand their options before deciding how to respond to an insurer or a proposed settlement.

Are pedestrian crashes common in Orange County?

The county recorded 732 pedestrian crashes in 2025, an average of approximately two per day, along with 48 pedestrian fatalities. These figures establish that pedestrian collisions were recurring events. 

If you were struck while walking, the investigation may need to establish the signal phase, your path, the vehicle’s movement, and what nearby cameras captured. Broward Crash℠, Injury Law Firm’s pedestrian accident representation focuses on investigating responsibility and documenting the impact of the injuries. A driver’s account should be evaluated alongside the available evidence.
