Car Accidents in Utah
According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, Utah experiences thousands of vehicle accidents each year, with many resulting in injuries or fatalities. Multi-vehicle collisions like this one often occur due to driver inattention, unsafe lane changes, or failure to yield. Below are some common contributing factors in two-vehicle crashes.
- Failure to signal: Not using turn signals can cause confusion and lead to collisions.
- Speeding: Higher speeds increase stopping distances and crash severity.
- Distracted driving: Taking eyes off the road for even a few seconds can result in an accident.
- Following too closely: Tailgating leaves little time to react to sudden stops.
- Improper lane changes: Moving between lanes without checking blind spots can cause sideswipe or rear-end crashes.
