Car Accidents in Utah
In Utah, thousands of vehicle accidents occur each year, many resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. These incidents can happen for a variety of reasons, but understanding the most common causes can help prevent future collisions.
- Distracted driving: Even brief lapses in attention, such as checking a phone or adjusting the radio, can cause accidents.
- Speeding: Higher speeds increase both the likelihood of a crash and the severity of resulting injuries.
- Failure to yield: Not respecting right-of-way rules often leads to dangerous side-impact collisions.
- Driving under the influence: Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, reaction times, and coordination, significantly raising crash risks.
- Following too closely: Tailgating reduces reaction time and increases the chances of rear-end collisions.
