What Are Common Injuries From Roadway Crashes?
Roadway accidents can cause injuries that range from minor cuts and bruises to broken bones and serious head trauma. The severity often depends on vehicle speed, the direction of contact, seat belt use, and whether a person was inside or outside a vehicle.
Some injuries may not be obvious immediately after a collision. Head, neck, back, and internal injuries can sometimes develop symptoms later. Medical professionals may use physical examinations and imaging tests to identify problems that are not visible from the outside.
Drivers and passengers can reduce injury risks by wearing seat belts and following posted speed limits. Staying alert at intersections can also help people recognize turning vehicles, changing traffic patterns, and other hazards before contact occurs.
