Car Accidents in Utah
Motor vehicle collisions are a daily occurrence in Utah, especially along major roads in populated areas. According to Utah.gov, driver inattention, speeding, and failure to yield are among the leading causes of these crashes. Here in Utah, ongoing education and enforcement efforts are focused on reducing serious and preventable injuries.
Accidents like this often happen because of:
- Distracted Driving: Texting, eating, or adjusting navigation can easily take a driver’s focus away from the road, resulting in sudden and dangerous mistakes.
- Improper Turns: Turning without signaling or misjudging gaps in traffic leads to many side-impact crashes—often at intersections.
- Speeding in Urban Areas: Drivers may exceed posted limits, especially on long straightaways like Redwood Road, decreasing their ability to stop in time.
- Heavy Traffic Volumes: High-traffic corridors create more opportunities for sudden braking, lane changes, or rear-end collisions.
