The World Health Organization (WHO) reveals that road traffic accidents lead to approximately 1.35 million deaths annually, making it the eighth most common cause of global fatalities. This staggering statistic underscores the need for increased safety measures and awareness campaigns worldwide. In the United States alone, tens of thousands of individuals lose their lives in car crashes each year, while millions more suffer enduring injuries that profoundly impact their lives, from physical impairments to psychological trauma.
Human errors contribute significantly to the majority of accidents. Speeding, distractions (such as using mobile phones while driving), and impairment due to alcohol or drugs rank among the top reported factors in automobile collisions nationwide. Additionally, factors such as poor weather conditions, mechanical failures, and road design also play a role in these tragic incidents. Following an accident, victims often undergo extensive medical treatments, with many facing life-altering conditions such as spinal cord fractures, internal organ injuries, and severe head trauma. These serious injuries can lead to long-term disabilities, chronic pain, and exorbitant medical costs, deeply affecting the victim's health, well-being, and quality of life, reshaping various aspects of their lives, including their ability to work and engage in daily activities.
