A head-on collision, also known as a wrong-way collision, is a term that refers to the impact between the front-ends of two vehicles moving in opposite directions. This type of car crash has the highest chance of leaving its victims with serious or even fatal injuries. The amount of force that is typically exerted during this kind of collision is extreme and the reason head-on collisions accounted for almost 30 of all fatal traffic accidents in 2017.  

When victims are injured in accidents caused by the negligence of other drivers, it is crucial that they seek legal guidance from a skilled and knowledgeable car accident attorney in Salt Lake City as soon as possible.
