Because they're both in stable orbits and the closest they can possibly get to each other is somewhere on the high side of 33 million miles apart, making it impossible for them to collide.

Mars is closer to earth than the sun why does mars orbit the sun and not earth?

Mars orbits the sun instead of Earth because all planets, including Mars, orbit the sun due to the sun's gravitational pull. The gravitational force exerted by the sun on Mars is stronger than the gravitational force between Earth and Mars. This gravitational force keeps Mars in orbit around the sun.
