Fatal Head-On Collision Statistics

A “head-on collision” is when two cars traveling in opposite directions collide head-on. Even at low speeds, the results of these crashes can be life-threatening or deadly.

Head-on collisions occur at traffic lights, stop signs, blind intersections, and highways. Head-on collisions at intersections are more frequent due to drivers disregarding traffic rules such as red lights or stop signs.

The impact force is increased by the speed and weight of the cars involved in a head-on collision. Large amounts of energy are released during head-on collisions. Because of the increased kinetic energy, this type of collision is more likely to result in fatalities.

Even though head-on collisions account for only 2% of all accidents, they account for 10% of all fatalities on US highways.
