What Injuries Can Result From Motor Vehicle Accidents?
Motor vehicle accidents can cause a wide range of injuries depending on the speed, direction, and force of the vehicles involved. Common injuries include fractures, cuts, bruises, head trauma, and injuries affecting the neck or back.
Some injuries may not produce obvious symptoms immediately. Headaches, dizziness, stiffness, and pain can appear later, particularly after trauma involving the head, neck, or spine.
Seat belts remain one of the most effective ways to reduce serious injury for vehicle occupants. Properly adjusted head restraints can also help reduce neck injuries. Drivers can further lower risk by maintaining safe speeds, leaving enough following distance, and staying attentive to changing traffic conditions.
