What Causes Car Accidents
Drivers are obliged by law to maintain a safe distance with the car ahead of them. Most of the traffic collisions happen when motorists make unsafe left turns. The California Vehicle Code 21801 requires motorists turning left or making a complete U-turn upon a highway or turning left into private or public property or an alley should yield the right-of-way to all cars oncoming from the opposite way that are close enough to cause risk at any time during the turning movement.
