DUI Head-On Collisions in California

Head-on collisions occur most often when drivers are under the influence because they’re more prone to lose control of their vehicles and veer into opposite lanes. Head-on collisions are considered to be the most dangerous types of accidents because when two vehicles collide coming from opposite directions, the force is more impactful, and the damages are more severe.
