Each day, serious motor vehicle accidents occur in Michigan, leading to significant injuries and life-altering consequences for many individuals and their families. It's common for victims to face injuries that necessitate extended time away from work for intensive medical care and rehabilitation. Tragically, many victims are left dealing with severe spinal cord fractures, broken bones, and deep cuts and lacerations, which often require surgeries and long-term therapy. Sadly, most of these accidents could have been prevented. Common reasons behind vehicle crashes throughout our state include speeding, distracted driving, adverse weather conditions, reckless driving, disregard for traffic signals, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and even mechanical failures in vehicles.
