Amman: The Public Security Directorate (PSD) has warned that "single-vehicle crashes," incidents involving only one vehicle without a collision with another, are often among the most dangerous types of traffic accidents. These incidents typically result in serious injuries due to collisions with fixed objects, rollovers, or vehicle overturns.

According to Jordan News Agency, the directorate cited several key causes of these accidents. Driver distraction, such as using mobile phones or eating and drinking while driving, was identified as a major factor. Excessive speed also significantly reduces a driver's ability to maintain control, particularly on curves or during unsafe overtaking maneuvers.

The PSD further highlighted fatigue and drowsiness as major risk factors. Additionally, poor vehicle maintenance, such as brake or tire failure, was noted as critically impairing driving safety.

Drivers were urged to strictly observe speed limits, avoid mobile phone use while driving, and ensure regular vehicle maintenance. The statement emphasized the life-saving importance of wearing seat belts, stressing that prevention begins with driver awareness and ends with safeguarding lives.
