Frontal Crashes
Frontal crashes occur when the front of one vehicle collides with the front of another vehicle or a stationary object, such as a tree or a wall. These types of accidents are often severe due to the high speeds involved and the direct impact on the vehicle's structure. Safety features like airbags and seatbelts are crucial in reducing injuries during these incidents.
In frontal crashes, the forces exerted on the occupants can lead to serious injuries, including head trauma and whiplash. Understanding the dynamics of frontal crashes helps in designing safer vehicles and improving road safety measures. Proper use of seatbelts and adherence to traffic laws can significantly lower the risk of such accidents.
