Car accidents are the most common grounds for personal injury claims throughout the United States. These cases typically involve a negligent driver who was speeding, driving drunk, or who was distracted while driving.

Depending on the force of impact and the particular circumstances of the accident, the injury sustained may be minor or life-threatening. Wrongful death may also result from a traffic collision.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

Traffic accidents can have numerous causes, including bad weather, road conditions, and wild animals crossing the road. Yet, when it comes to personal injury claims, crashes have a single root cause—human error. In fact, 94% of all car accidents are caused by mistakes motorists make behind the wheel, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Some of the most common causes of car accidents caused by drivers include:

• Aggressive driving: Tailgating, changing lanes often without signaling, and other ways of driving aggressively can easily lead to a serious crash.
• Distracted driving: As one of the leading causes of all traffic accidents and fatalities, it is best to avoid distracted driving at all costs. Texting and driving is the most common cause of crashes caused by distractions.
• Driving while tired: Sleepiness and exhaustion can impair a motorist just as badly as driving while under the influence of alcohol.
• Drunk driving: According to the CDC, 28% of all traffic-related deaths were caused by drunk driving in 2016.
• Ignoring traffic signs and signals: Almost half of car accidents occur at intersections, typically because one or more drivers weren’t paying attention to or ignored a traffic sign or light.
• Reckless driving: Reckless driving, such as speeding, is a major cause of auto collisions nationwide.

Common Car Crash Injuries

Some of the types of injuries that may be associated with car accidents include, but are not limited to:

• Head trauma
• Facial injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• Paralysis
• Concussion
• Dental injuries
• Whiplash
• Neck injuries
• Broken bones
• Damaged internal organs
• Amputation
• Burns

The most influential factors that will determine how great of injury a victim may sustain will be the force and location of impact. The crashworthiness of the vehicle and the comparative size of vehicles involved will also influence potential injuries.

At times, however, it may seem that the injuries sustained in a car accident also have something to do with luck or another unknown factor. We have all heard of catastrophic collisions that left vehicle occupants with minor injuries and seemingly minor accidents that left victims with lasting medical problems.
