traffic incidents
Traffic incidents refer to events that disrupt the normal flow of vehicles on roads. These can include accidents, breakdowns, or obstacles that block lanes. Common causes of traffic incidents are speeding, distracted driving, and adverse weather conditions. They can lead to delays, injuries, or even fatalities.
When a traffic incident occurs, emergency services, such as police and ambulances, are often called to the scene. Traffic management systems may also be activated to reroute vehicles and minimize congestion. Public awareness campaigns aim to educate drivers about safe practices to reduce the likelihood of such incidents on the road.
