What Should Drivers Know About Head Injuries in Crashes?
Head injuries can occur when a person strikes a vehicle interior, another object, or the ground during a crash. Symptoms may include confusion, dizziness, headache, loss of consciousness, or changes in alertness. Some head injuries may not be immediately obvious, which is why medical evaluation can be important after a significant impact.
Seat belts are one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk of serious injury during a vehicle crash. Drivers and passengers should wear properly positioned restraints on every trip, including short journeys. Children should also use age- and size-appropriate car seats or booster seats.
Drivers can help reduce crash risks by following posted speed limits, staying focused on the roadway, and adjusting their driving to traffic and weather conditions. Keeping a safe distance from other vehicles provides more time to react to sudden changes. Avoiding distractions can also help drivers recognize hazards before a collision occurs.
