5 Common Vehicle Accidents and How they Occur

Posted By SCOTT D. HUGHES || 28-Dec-2022

There are several types of automobile accidents that can occur:

1) Rear-end collision: This type of accident occurs when one vehicle hits the back of another vehicle that is stopped or moving slowly. This can happen when a driver is following too closely, is distracted, or fails to react in time to the vehicle in front.

2) T-bone or side-impact collision: This type of accident occurs when the front of one vehicle hits the side of another vehicle. This can happen at intersections when one vehicle fails to yield the right of way or runs a red light.

3) Head-on collision: This type of accident occurs when the front of one vehicle collides with the front of another vehicle. This can happen when a driver crosses over into oncoming traffic or drifts into the wrong lane.

4) Single-vehicle accident: This type of accident occurs when a vehicle hits an object or rolls over without any other vehicles being involved. This can happen when a driver loses control of the vehicle, drives off the road, or encounters an obstacle in the road.

5) Multiple-vehicle accident: This type of accident involves more than two vehicles. This can happen when a chain reaction occurs, such as when one vehicle rear-ends another and then is hit by a third vehicle.
