Teenage Drivers at Greater Risk of Head Injuries

Teenage Drivers at Greater Risk of Head Injuries

  A recent study performed by State Farm and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia revealed that “As many as 30% of teenage drivers sustain fairly substantial head injuries when involved in car accidents. Over 55,000 teenagers and their passengers were included in this study.” The study suggested that skull fractures and concussions were the most common head injuries associated with teenagers and car accidents. It is unsure why head injuries are so common among teenage drivers. The rate of accidents among teenage drivers can be more easily explained. Their inexperience contributes significantly to the likelihood of them being involved in an auto accident.
A car accident can significantly impair your daily routine. Personal injury and damages to your vehicle can limit or even eliminate your ability to get around. You may become unable to work or perform even the simplest of tasks. It may not always be possible to avoid a car accident, but it is possible to limit the amount of stress that can result from one.
