Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common causes of car accidents?
Distracted driving, speeding, following too closely, and failing to yield are among the most frequently cited factors in crash reports nationwide.
How does speed affect crash severity?
Higher speeds reduce the time a driver has to react and increase the force of impact, which usually leads to more serious injuries and vehicle damage.
Why is distracted driving so dangerous?
Taking attention off the road, even briefly, can prevent a driver from noticing a stopped vehicle, pedestrian, or sudden hazard in time to avoid a collision.
How do weather and road conditions contribute to crashes?
Rain, debris, or poor visibility can reduce traction and reaction time, making routine intersections more hazardous than usual.
