Surviving a Vehicle Crash

摘要

Every 14 seconds, there is a traffic accident in our country that results in injury. Every 12 minutes, someone dies in a crash. We spend billions and billions of dollars on the problem and it's slowly getting better, but motor vehicle accidents still remain statistically one of the biggest risks to life and limb you'll ever face. "Ho-hum," you're probably thinking. After all, we know that car crashes cause about 25,000 deaths a year, but most of us simply view it as one of the accepted risks of modern living. But speaking as someone who has spent years responding to automobile crashes that range from the typical fender bender to multiple fatalities, it has become apparent that the things you do before, during and after a crash have significant bearing on your well-being.
