Risk factors are situations that increase the probability of having an accident.
In traffic accidents we have three factors and not all of them have the same incidence:
- Human factor (70% - 90%): by avoiding the risk factors that depend on the driver (distractions, speed, fatigue, alcohol, drugs, etc.) the risk of suffering an accident and its serious consequences can be reduced.
- Road and environment factor (10% - 35%): occurs when we do not adapt the way we drive to the road or the weather.
- Vehicle factor (4% - 13%): can be avoided by carrying out good maintenance of the vehicle.
