Most of the traffic accidents around the world are caused by speeding vehicles and despite knowing the dangers of speeding, drivers like to drive faster.
According to experts, if there is an accident between a high-speed and a low-speed vehicle, both will have different effects, the proof of this is also found in a video that is going viral on social media.
An Indian man has shared a video on social networking site Twitter showing the effects of a car hitting an object like a pillar at different speeds.
At the beginning of the video, the car is shown coming at 30 mph and the front of the car is damaged when it crashes into the pillar.
After that, the speed of the vehicle and the damage caused after the collision increases.

In fact, the purpose of the video is to spread awareness that if the vehicle is driven at a low speed, the lives of the occupants can be saved in case of an accident, but the higher the speed of the vehicle, the greater the danger to the occupants.
Even a minor accident with a high-speed vehicle can be life-threatening for many people as the vehicle is completely destroyed in the collision.
Social media users had mixed comments on the video, with one person saying that the correct speed of the vehicle is the one at which you can control the vehicle.
