Why are road accidents at high speeds very much worse than road accidents at low speeds ?

उत्तर
It is a common observation that road accidents due to vehicles travelling at high speeds are much worse than those with vehicles at low speeds. This is because the momentum of vehicles running at greater speeds is very high and causes a lot of damage to the vehicles and injures the passengers during the collision.
