Car Accident Injuries<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Although airbags, anti-lock brake systems, rear-view\ncameras, blind spot detection, and other motor vehicle safety systems are\nalways being improved in the automotive design and manufacturing industry, they\nare not always enough to fully protect drivers and passengers from all car\naccident injuries. Injuries from car accidents range from minor, such as minor\nstiffness and body aches, to catastrophic, such as paraplegia and death. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rear-End Car Accidents<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

When one car collides into the back bumper of another\ncar, this is known as a rear-end car accident<\/em>. These accidents often\nhappen when a vehicle is tailing another, or driving too close and because the\nfollowing driver is simply not paying attention. It also frequently occurs in\nsituations in stop-and-go traffic and traffic jams, at stop lights and stop\nsigns, and left-turn intersections. In such cases, the drivers and passengers\ninside the struck vehicle are the ones who tend to experience more serious\ninjuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Front seat passengers are prone to blunt force impact\non the steering wheel, dashboard, windows, and windshield. These impacts can\ncause injuries to the face, chest, neck, knees, and more. Passengers in the\nbackseat of a vehicle that is rear-ended can also face a long list of injuries\nas a result of sudden forward and backward thrusting, and impact to the\nheadrests, windows, front seats, or other objects inside a vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Car Accident Injuries<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Another common injury from rear-end accidents are dermal burns. Airbags are triggered to deploy upon a rear-end impact, thus causing front-seat passengers to experience burns from the airbag propellant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
