What Injuries Can Result From Roadway Accidents?
Roadway accidents can cause injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to broken bones, head trauma, and neck or back injuries. Severity often depends on vehicle speed, direction of travel, and the manner of contact.
Seat belts can help keep occupants secured during sudden movement and reduce contact with parts of the passenger compartment. Airbags provide another layer of protection by cushioning certain areas of the body during a collision.
Some injuries may not become noticeable right away. Headaches, dizziness, pain, swelling, and limited movement can develop later, so medical evaluation is important when symptoms appear.
