Car Accident Type Injuries from road traffic accidents can range from minor whiplash to fatal injuries. An estimated 1.2 million people worldwide are killed each year on the road with more minor injuries being about forty times this number. It's been 110 years since the first death due to a road accident, now more than a century on we are seeing more and more injuries due to road traffic accidents, mostly involving car accidents, which comes as no surprise when you take into account the amount of congestion on Britain's roads today. If you are unfortunatly involved in a car accident you should always stay at the scene and decide on the emergancy services that you need by taking into account things like, is the road blocked? if so you need the police, are people injured? Then an ambulance is needed. As well as these essentials you should always exchange details with the other driver so repairs and insurance claims can be sorted out quickly to get you back on the road in no time. One other thing you are able to do after a car accident is claim compensation. You can do this as a driver, passenger or pedestrian if the accident wasn't your fault.
