High Speed Collisions

High-speed collisions played a role in approximately 30% of all fatal crashes in 2004 according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

 

In high-speed collisions, a vehicle undergoes such force that its structure cannot possibly protect its passengers from serious injury.

 

When you speed:

• The distance traveled after seeing an emergency and actually reacting to it increases.

• The distance needed to stop a vehicle is increased.

• The severity of a crash increases as the speed increases.

• An airbag and seatbelt are less effective when speeding is involved.

 

For the innocent survivors of high-speed car accident, the physical and emotional recovery process can be horribly painful and unbelievably expensive.
