Head-On Collisions on California’s Roads

Head-on collisions are a frightening and devastating type of accident. Two cars traveling at 60 mph that crash head-on creates the impact of crashing at 120 mph into a brick wall.

Many head-on crashes are due to drunk driving. When someone is intoxicated, their ability to navigate their vehicle correctly or pay attention to street signs and the flow of traffic is greatly reduced. Crashes involving a vehicle on the wrong side of the road are often caused by a driver’s intoxication.
