Why does a high speed crash cause more damage tha a low speed crash?
In a high-speed crash, there is more kinetic energy that needs to be dissipated upon impact, leading to more damage. The force of impact in a high-speed crash is also greater, causing more deformation to the vehicles and potentially more severe injuries to occupants. Additionally, the time available to decelerate in a high-speed crash is shorter, resulting in a more abrupt and intense collision.
