Motor vehicle accidents occur when a person least expects it. Car accident reports show that both human-made or external influences cause collisions. At other times, medical conditions like epileptic attacks and diabetes mellitus can lead to car crashes.

The best way to prevent collisions is to mitigate the factors that cause it. Drivers have a vital role in achieving this, and they can do this by ensuring they obey the rules of the road. The latter entails following traffic lights and stop signs, maintaining a single lane and avoiding illegal lane change, avoiding wrong-way driving, making turns at designated exits, maintaining the speed limit, and yielding to other road users.
