Head-On Collision Statistics

Each year, over 38,000 people are killed in collisions on US highways. Additionally, around 4.4 million people sustain serious injuries that necessitate medical attention. Road crashes are the leading cause of death for people aged 1 to 54 in the United States.

In this instance, a head-on collision occurred. When two cars traveling in opposite directions collide directly, a head-on collision occurs.

Head-on collisions have the potential to result in catastrophic injury or death. Collisions with another vehicle generate a great deal of energy. As a result of the increased energy, fatalities are more likely in this type of accident.

Although head-on collisions account for only 2% of all accidents, they account for 10% of all fatalities on the road in the United States.

It is human error that is the leading cause of most of these accidents. Distracted driving, speeding, drunk driving, reckless driving, bad weather, wrong-way driving, and failure to obey traffic laws are all dangerous acts.
