The majority of accidents on the roads, including those that cause injuries and result in personal injury cases, are rear-end collisions. Most of those collisions could have been avoided had the trailing driver allowed more room between their vehicle and the vehicle in front of them.

The Apple iPhone has been both a technological and marketing marvel. Its sales skyrocketed over time, going from a little over one million units in 2007 to more than 200 million per year in recent years.
