The average deaths per year caused by car crashes since 2010 is 1,257, a damning figure that is much too high. Not all car crash deaths are accidents, some are caused by a range of different factors, incompetent driving, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, speeding, getting distracted by phones etc, and more.

With 20 yards between you and an almost certain collision, what would you do? Usually I’ll stay cool, calm and collective during a live-threatening situation such as this one.
