dc.description.abstractThe main factors of car accidents were statistically investigated in Jordan. The car accidents were classified into three major categories, collisions, rollover and run over accidents. As the human errors were found to be the major reason for all kinds of accidents, they were classified into thirteen types of errors. The most serious errors of drivers causing accidents were failing to take correct measurements during driving, tailgating and incorrect lane taking. As the percentage of female drivers is less than 25%, they were found to make more collisions than male drivers, but male drivers make more run over and rollover accidents. Young male drivers were found to make more accidents than old ones. But young female drivers made less accidents than middle age and old female drivers. Statistical significance analysis showed that driver errors are the major factors of accidents in general, and collisions and turn over accidents in specific. Keywords: car accidents, driver errors, collision accidents, run over accidents, factors of accidents, statistical analysis.
