It depends on so many different things like how fast one was going, the place that was hit, front, side or behind and what type of vehicle. Certain cars do better than others in crashes or was a motorcycle one of the ones involved?

Hard to say.

Without narrowing it down to types, vehicles  and force diagrams, etc., that's like trying to give make sense of the answer to "What is the average temperature of any location on the earth?"

The "mean" is not representative of the whole because of the 'variance' of the data.

Still can't make a general statement without knowing precisely what each person thinks happened. For example, if they tried to avoid hitting you the damage could be different if they hadn't taken evasive action.

Here's a link that will give you an overview of low speed accidents. It talks about injuries first, but then goes on to the accidents themselves.
