A motor vehicle accident occurs either as a single-vehicle collision, two-vehicle collision, or multiple-vehicle collision. Factors leading to the trio are similar and cover speeding, running red lights or stop signs at intersections, distractions while driving, and operating a car while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Others are driving on the wrong way, failing to yield at intersections, veering into the opposite lane of travel, and driving too fast for road and weather conditions. Drivers should mitigate the factors by obeying traffic rules and regulations and putting safety first.
