Frequently Asked Questions
Where do most traffic crashes happen?
A large share occur on local roads and intersections close to home, often at moderate speeds, rather than on highways. Familiar routes can breed inattention, which raises the odds of a crash.
What injuries are most common in two-vehicle crashes?
Whiplash, bruising from seatbelts or airbags, and cuts from broken glass are common. Harder impacts can cause broken bones, head injuries, or spinal injuries, so anyone involved should be checked by a medical provider even if they feel fine at the scene.
