Car crashes usually involve speed.
Intersections generally experience more crashes than expressways due to the higher frequency of conflict points, such as turning vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. The complexity of traffic movements and the presence of stop signs or traffic signals contribute to a higher incidence of accidents at intersections. However, expressways can have more severe crashes due to higher speeds and fewer escape routes. Overall, while intersections have more total crashes, expressways can be more dangerous when accidents occur.
In my opinion, boat racing is more dangerous. There are more auto racing crashes each year, but far more walk away uninjured from auto crashes than boat racing crashes.
Driving a car is much more dangerous than a plane, with thousands of fatal accidents each year in the US. Plane crashes are a very rare occurrence.
Minor accidents happen in heavy traffic or on highways where as serious crashes happen more out on the open road where people speed more and there are sharp corners
I think is just news who lately focus more on aircraft crashes. but accidents have been happening in all times
Speeding is a contributing factor in about 26% of all car accidents in the United States. These crashes result in more than 9,300 deaths each year.
Children are more prone to bike accidents because they are prone to more error related crashes. Children lack judgement skills that allow them to decide how to navigate with other people on the roadways. A large number of accidents are from bicycling the wrong way in traffic.
One of the best things is that you can reach a destination faster. The worst thing is that airplanes are more vulnerable to accidents and crashes. There are almost 10-15 crashes annually.
Please read answer carefully: Under the surface most Crashes have an element of excess speed involved, but depending where you live speeding is sited as low as 15% and as high as 70% as a cause of Crashes. Speeding is usually a part of agressive and dangerous driving, and that causes 80% of accidents. If you can get an agressive driver to slow down he or she will have much more time to deal with trouble on the road, thus be a safer driver. And that is why Police enforce speed limits.
There are approximately 6 million car crashes in the United States each year. This includes everything from minor fender-benders to more serious accidents. The number can vary by country and region.
Yes. Estimates for 2015 are close to 6 million traffic accidents.
Large commercial aircraft crashes are very rare, making this transport the safest way to travel in the world. Small private airplanes crash much more often, so these accidents would not be rare.
