I have met with many friends who believe you should frequently change your LinkedIn accounts for fresh starts. I do not believe in this theory as LinkedIn is more about your professional career history.
In case you are having a new job in the same industry, I do not believe there is any need of you to create a new Linkedin account because the old one you have may contain connections from your previous work. Ancient colleagues, therefore, become the first professional connections.
Also, many certifications are linked to your account and deleting the account may have negative effects as you may lose some of your credentials.
Remember that it is hard to establish a reputation on LinkedIn as it is a very competitive social network. As soon as you can establish your self and your reputation with your account, you will save time and energy not to go and create a new one.
At the end of the day, everybody has his/her point of view about this issue but I do believe you do not need to create a new account except in case of force majeure. Unfortunately, we are humans we may have some misunderstanding or we may have made mistakes that we need to detach ourselves from: In such a case it is advisable to create a new account but remember to always have one LinkedIn account to avoid any suspicious activity from your peers.
Take care.
