What Can Affect Injuries in Highway Crashes?
Highway crashes can result in varying levels of injury depending on vehicle speed, direction of travel, and vehicle interactions. Seat belt use and the position of occupants can also affect how much force reaches the body.
Roadway design may influence the risks drivers face near highway entrances, exits, and connecting streets. Changes in traffic speed can give drivers less time to react to vehicles entering or leaving the highway.
Visibility is another factor, particularly near ramps and intersections. Drivers should maintain a safe speed, watch surrounding traffic, and leave enough space to react to sudden changes ahead.
