Rear-end accidents occur when one car hits the rear of another vehicle. In most cases, the driver of the trailing car is responsible for any injuries or damages.

To avoid such accidents, drivers should take a number of steps. First, they should be aware of traffic in all directions. Second, they should ensure that there is considerable space between them and the driver in front. And third, they should routinely check their brakes.
