According to figures from the National Fire Prevention Association, fireworks caused 11,000 injuries and 4 deaths in 2016. As well as personal injury, the NFPA announces that fireworks start an average of 18,500 fires each year. 1,300 of those are structural fires and 300 are vehicle fires. It’s not very difficult to consider how that transpires: if you’ve never noticed a firework abruptly whirling beneath a parked car and suffer a moment of sheer terror, you’re one of the very fortunate ones. On the whole, the NFPA estimates that fireworks cause $43 million in property damage each year.
