Car Accidents in Ohio
Ohio experiences a significant number of motor vehicle accidents every year. According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol, in 2022, there were over 300,000 crashes reported statewide, many of which resulted in serious injuries. Accidents like these can occur for a variety of reasons, and understanding some of the common contributing factors is critical for safer driving.
- Tailgating: Following too closely reduces the ability to stop in time during sudden traffic changes, leading to rear-end collisions.
- Failure to Yield: Misjudging the speed or distance of other vehicles at intersections often results in dangerous accidents.
- Distracted Driving: Cell phone use and other distractions are leading causes of crashes in Ohio and across the nation.
- Road Conditions: Ice, snow, and potholes are frequent culprits during Ohio winters, making driving more hazardous.
