Collision

Data travels around the network in order to arrive at its destination. Data may be sent simultaneously from different computers. When this happens, the data may collide and become corrupted. The data must then be destroyed and retransmitted.

If there is a lot of data collision, the network can appear to slow down as the data has to be retransmitted.
