Traffic Accidents

Traffic accidents refer to incidents that occur on roadways involving vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists. These events can result in injuries, fatalities, and property damage. The term encompasses a variety of collisions, including those between motor vehicles, between vehicles and pedestrians, and single-vehicle accidents. Factors contributing to traffic accidents may include human errors (such as distracted driving, speeding, or driving under the influence), mechanical failures of vehicles, and adverse environmental conditions (like poor weather or road hazards). Traffic accidents are a significant public safety concern and often lead to investigations, traffic laws and regulations aimed at prevention, and measures for improving road safety.
