ascending order they are:
1. Equipment Failure
2. Roadway Design

5. Manufacturers are required by law to design
and engineer cars that meet a minimum safety
standard. Many companies have produced safe
vehicles that are easy and safe to drive. The
most cited types of equipment failure are loss
of brakes, tire blowouts or tread separation,
and steering/suspension failure.

road layouts and traffic
