But unfortunately, given that this is true, either minor or major traffic crash, inflict major mental damage on people involved in the crash due to shock or trauma and tend to affect one's quality of life and productivity as an adult. In fact, mental injuries are as severe as physical injuries that you suffer from a car accident as it is the main cause of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
