Car accidents are now a worldwide problem. Nearly all countries of the world are affected by motor vehicle collisions. Local authorities are alarmed to see a rising amount of casualties and accidents as an increasing number of people can afford a car these days.
A large quantity of accidents is due to individuals' wrong doing. Lack of judgement, reckless driving, intoxication and excess speed are the main reasons for accidents.
There are other causes responsible for triggering an accident such as mist, strong wind, low temperature and mediocre road conditions. Unfortunately, drivers' vigilance is too often low, contributing to more risks of crashes.
A traffic collision can result in light or serious injuries and sometime disability and death. In every case, there is property damage and often, the car is written down as more and more insurance companies refuse to have the car repaired.
It is deplorable to notice great disparities between male and female and youth and adults drivers, involved in traffic collisions. Males and young people are proving to be bad drivers. Studies have highlighted the propensity to irresponsible and immature conduct when driving from men and youth. They have a tendency to take far more risks on the road with no regards for the others' safety.
More data have exposed that elder people are as well implicated in too many car accidents. The fact that most of them have lost their reflexes plays a key role in this situation. They also have a inclination for driving terribly slowly. It has been put in evidence that a slow speed is as hazardous as a fast one.
When covering your car, insurance companies take these reports very seriously. This is indicated in the rates. Your age, your sex, your driving record will have a major influence on the fee of your policy. An experienced driver, a female, a mature person to name but three will have lower premium to pay than a novice, a male or a youth.
Regrettably, no-one is shielded from accidents. So it is a good idea to be ready in case of. Always have with you or in your car a notebook with a pen and ideally a disposable camera. Provided that you are not injured, use the latter to photograph the collision from different points of view including the surroundings.
Then, take note of the other driver's details such as name, registration number of the other car and details of the insurance company. In the notebook, write down the date and time of the accident, the place it occurred, the weather condition, any injuries sustained by you or the other party, the detailed damage on both cars and name and contact details of any witness. If you are involved in an accident, you might be injured and certainly in a state of shock and therefore not in condition to remember to do it. But these pieces of information will be very valuable later when putting your claim through and a demand for compensation if you are not at fault.
Car accidents ruin lives. Killing somebody is a heavy load to carry. Drive as if you own the car, not the road.
