There are different forms of traffic collisions, and they often result in fatal wounds or life-altering injuries. The latter include traumatic brain injury, which leaves severe deficits on all levels of function, and spinal cord injuries, which can result in paralysis in the legs and pelvis.

Accident reports also show that other injuries include severe lacerations, which can lead to permanent scarring and need for skin graft surgeries, burns, and limb amputations. Some people experience post-traumatic stress disorder, internal bleeding, organ damage, and broken bones.

Traffic authorities advise drivers to drive carefully, obey traffic rules and regulations, maintain the speed limit and their lanes, and avoid driving impaired.
