An accident chain is a series of events or actions which are linked together to form an accident. Accident chains may vary according to the type of accident. If there is a vehicle crash during a storm, the accident chain will include the individual, the vehicle, the road conditions, and the weather conditions. If a person breaks their leg on a slippery floor in a supermarket, the accident chain will include the supermarket, the wet floor, the slip, and the individual.
