Tell A Friend About LaneFX | |
So we all know that we should be careful when changing lanes. But recent research gives a clear picture of the inherent risks associated with changing lanes and being aware of what’s in our vehicle’s blind spot at all times. So why place so much importance on this particular part of your driving? Here are 5 independent research statistics why:
1. You are three times more likely to be in an accident when changing lanes than if you continue driving in the same lane.
2. In average daily commutes, drivers change lanes once every 2.76 miles. This frequency increases significantly in suburban
rush hour commutes. 3. In a conventional head turn to check your blind spot, by the time your turn your head away from the traffic your vehicle
travels more than half of a football field, unattended! If you could use the distance traveled while you’re not looking at the road ahead for advance emergency
braking,
you could bring even the largest vehicle on the road (e.g. the 6,700lbs Hummer H2 SUV) from highway speeds to a complete stop, safely. 4. 1 out of 25 accidents on America’s highways today is due to unsafe lane changes and merges; That’s approximately
630,000 collisions every year. 5. Every year, there are 726 deaths in collisions due to improper lane changes or merges.
