A head-on collision is when two vehicles facing each other collide. These accidents are also referred to as frontal crashes.
In some head-on collisions, one driver ended up going the wrong way on a one-way road. In other cases, he or she might veer into the opposite lane on an undivided two-lane roadway.
Though motorists should operate their vehicles safely, sometimes they make mistakes. In other instances, a driver’s negligent or malicious behavior becomes a hazard to passengers and others sharing the road. Consider the following common driver errors that could lead to car accidents.
Drivers should not take any substance that harms brain function, muscle coordination, reasoning, or thinking. Impairing substances might include:
A driver does not have to be legally intoxicated to be a hazard. In 2019, 1,775 people died in alcohol-related crashes where the driver’s BAC was between 0.01 and 0.07. According to the US Department of Transportation, 56 percent of drivers involved in serious crashes tested positive in at least 1 category of mind-altering substances.
The telltale signs of drug-impaired or drunk drivers are not always visible to the untrained eye. To investigate the details of your accident and determine who may be liable, please call Fielding Law’s attorneys at (877) 880-4090 and report your accident to law enforcement.
According to recent estimates, drowsy driver crashes resulted in about 50,000 injured people and nearly 800 deaths. This is no surprise since fatigue can affect essential driving skills.
Fatigue affects:
Drinking alcohol compounds the effects of fatigue. Some medications can cause drowsiness, especially those that warn consumers not to operate heavy machinery.
NHTSA reports that a car traveling at 55 mph can cover 100 yards in 4 or 5 seconds. Therefore, a few moments of dozing off could result in a head-on collision.
Driving takes focus. In 2019, distracted drivers caused 3,142 deaths and many severe injuries.
A wide range of actions could break a drivers’ concentration:
Many states have passed laws concerning handheld mobile devices, including cell phones, tablets, and GPS navigational systems. Yet, reckless driving continues to cause head-on collisions every year. If a distracted driver caused your head-on collision, an experienced car accident lawyer can help protect your rights.
