there are two things that prevent that one sounds like it would make them crash
they are constantly being pulled in to the planet due to gravitational pull which according to E=mc² actually pushes on the planet due to time and light bending around the object but that's another explanation
BUT heres the key
the rotation of the planet and rings (which are clouds made up of small asteroids and pieces of ice) also rotate along with the planet which slings them outward
now what this does is pushes them until they find their equilibrium that stabilizes them, much like the way the moon revolves the earth stabilizing it on its axis controlling the climate of the earth
i can explain the rings as a skydiver, the skydiver falls until the force of gravity is canceled out by the friction of wind resistance but in the case of the rings the force of gravity is nuled out by the force of the rotation throwing out the rings
long story short, no they will never collide unless Saturn cracks and splits in half, and i don't think Darth Vader is going to be shooting it with his death star any time soon.

Will Saturn's Rings Collide with Saturn in near Future?
No , because they will always be orbiting Saturn and it is impossible for them to collide because if you touch them.. They break into tiny little bits of pieces. - Julie ; xo
