Car Accidents in Michigan

Motor vehicle accidents can significantly impact an individual's life, often resulting from the reckless actions of others. Various factors contribute to these collisions:

• Distracted driving: A major cause of accidents occurs when drivers fail to pay attention to the road, substantially increasing the risk of collisions.
• Speeding: Exceeding speed limits not only raises the likelihood of accidents but also diminishes drivers' reaction time, making it challenging to avoid collisions.
• Impairment: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs severely affects reaction time, responsible decision-making, and overall vehicle control.

Automobile collisions can be devastating, with tens of thousands reported statewide annually in Michigan. Many of these incidents result from negligence involving drivers impaired by substances, distracted individuals, or those exceeding speed limits. Any reckless action carries the potential for severe injury accidents.
