Car Accidents in Alabama
Drivers can take steps to stay safe on the road by being aware of common accident causes. Some of the leading factors in Alabama crashes include:
- Heavy Traffic & Congestion – Roads with high vehicle volume, like I-10, often lead to sudden stops and rear-end collisions. Increased congestion can make it harder to avoid accidents.
- Speeding & Aggressive Driving – Driving over the speed limit or making aggressive lane changes increases the risk of a crash, particularly in high-traffic areas like interstates.
- Distracted Driving – Using a phone, adjusting the radio, or talking to passengers can take a driver’s attention off the road, leading to preventable accidents.
- Inclement Weather – Rain, fog, and other weather conditions can reduce visibility and make roads slippery, increasing the chances of a collision.
- Failure to Maintain Safe Following Distances – Tailgating is a common cause of accidents, as drivers may not have enough time to stop when traffic slows suddenly.
