What can happen in a head-on collision?

For the latest reporting year in Missouri, we know that there were:

• 153,422 total crashes
• 923 crash fatalities
• 57,270 crash injuries

Head-on collisions are among the worst types of vehicle crashes we come across. They are among the deadliest types of crashes a person can experience and often cause the following:

• Traumatic brain injuries
• Spinal cord injuries with possible paralysis
• Broken bones (both extremities and rib cage)
• Major internal organ damage

Each of these injuries requires immediate emergency medical treatment, but that is not usually where the care stops. Head-on collision victims often need follow-up procedures or extensive rehabilitation in order to make a full recovery.

• In many cases, head-on collision victims are permanently disabled.

We know that medical costs are only part of the picture. Victims are often unable to work while they recover and lose the income they need to support their families.

How do these incidents happen?

All too often, we find that head-on collisions occur due to impaired drivers. For the latest reporting year in Missouri, there were more than 3,000 people injured and over 200 people killed due to crashes involving drunk or drugged drivers. Impaired drivers often speed down the wrong side of the roadway, unaware they are in the wrong lane of traffic.

We also know that distracted drivers are cause head-on collisions. When a person pays more attention to their phones or other things inside their vehicle, they are not properly watching the roadway.
