Chain reaction or multiple-car crashes often involve both primary and secondary impact. Primary impact occurs when the at-fault driver collides with another vehicle. A secondary impact may occur when drivers attempting to avoid a crash collide with each other. The risk of injury and death increases in multi-vehicle accidents with primary and secondary impact.
