Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In a crash, the G-force of the collision, or the forces acting in the opposite direction of your vehicle’s acceleration, makes a difference in your injuries. You have to consider a number of factors when calculating the G-force of a collision, such as: The speed at which your vehicle was traveling.

Detailed explanation-2: -According to GSU’s HyperPhysics project, a 160 lb person “wearing a seat belt and travelling at only 30 miles per houra” experiences around 30g of force in a front-end collision with a fixed object. That’s 2.4 tonnes of force acting on the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Head-On Collisions By far the deadliest accident type is the head-on collision. Head-on collisions consider both vehicle’s speed at the time of the crash, which means even an accident at lower speeds can be catastrophic.

Detailed explanation-4: -One report uncovered a startling statistic: 77% of motorists in the US have been in at least one accident in their lifetime. For every 1000 miles you drive, your chances of getting into a car accident are 1 in 366. The average driver will file an insurance claim for an auto collision once every 17.9 years.
