Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, although it is usually thought that they cannot be avoided.
Yes. Many people think crashes happen by chance, but data shows when, where, and why they occur. The fact that many factors are involved does not make them inevitable. In most cases, the driver could have acted to prevent them or reduce the harm they caused. In the image, the collision happened at an intersection with a stop sign.
