There is a huge difference between the real-life recovery from a head injury and how Hollywood movie makers depict these events. When a movie character gets into a car accident or takes a blow to the head, the script follows a predictable path: the hero is knocked unconscious, they wake up, dust themselves off, and leap back into action for the next scene—usually just in time for the high-speed chase.

The latest data from the New Brunswick RCMP has sent a sobering message to motorists across the province. The 2024 Annual Report, released in November 2025, confirms a troubling trend: traffic fatalities in RCMP-patrolled areas have spiked by nearly 20% compared to the previous year.
