Traumatic brain injuries account for more than one-half of all injuries suffered as a result of automobile accidents. A traumatic brain injury can occur when an object violently slams into someone's head or a person strikes their head on an object like the windshield of a car or the cement of the highway. Wearing a seatbelt lessens one's chances of receiving traumatic brain injury from their head striking the windshield or being thrown from the car.

Whiplash is the pain that is caused when the head is sharply thrust back as a result of being struck from behind in an automobile accident. The unique characteristic of whiplash is that it sometimes doesn't present itself for several days after the injury occurs. People can walk away from an automobile accident like nothing has happened only to find themselves unable to move or even get out of bed days later.

It is not uncommon for violent automobile accidents to cause broken, bruised or fractured spinal cords that result in temporary or even permanent paralysis. Paralysis can be either partial or total depending on the point in the back or neck where the break occurred. Broken necks can result in total paralysis.
