Three collisions can occur in one crash between a car and a wall by the car initially colliding with the wall, then rebounding off the wall and colliding again before coming to a final stop against the wall. The initial impact, the rebound, and the final stop are considered three separate collisions within the same crash event.

Fractures are broken bones. Most fractures occur from: * Sudden accelleration or decelleration -- car collisions, falls * Torsion -- sharp twists -- side car collisions etc. * Penetration trauma -- bullet wounds * Crushing or compression -- car acciddents, something falling on you * Repetitive Impact (jumping up and down for a few hours on a very hard surface can cause shin splints -- small, linear stress fractures).
They happen everyday. About 115 people die each day because of themAlternate Answer: I would start with the number of car crashes for a specific year, which is about 6 million each year. Then I would compare that to the number of seconds in that year, which is about 31 million. If we divide 31 by 6 we get a car crash about every 5 seconds.

They are known as 'secondary' injuries to the original collision because they occur AFTER the occupant suffers the impact of the initial collision and occurs when the passenger is thrown around either inside the vehicle or ejected from it. The three collisions that happen when a car crashes is: 1. the car with the object 2. your body with the car 3. your internal organs with your skeleton.
