Car Accidents in Michigan

Experiencing a car accident can have devastating effects, both physically and emotionally. Regrettably, each year, tens of thousands of individuals sustain serious injuries in car crashes across our state. Many of these accidents stem from drivers' recklessness and negligence. Common factors contributing to vehicle collisions include:

• Impaired Driving: Operating a vehicle under the influence of intoxicants significantly impairs judgment and reaction time, leading to a higher risk of accidents. Alcohol and drugs can severely affect a driver's ability to make quick decisions and respond to sudden changes on the road.
• Speeding: Exceeding the speed limit increases the chances of losing control, lengthens stopping distances, and results in more severe injuries in accidents. High-speed crashes are more likely to result in fatalities and catastrophic injuries, making it crucial for drivers to adhere to speed limits.
• Right-of-Way Violations: Failing to yield the right of way at intersections and stop signs can lead to head-on collisions and other serious accidents. These types of violations are often due to impatience or distraction, and they can have life-altering consequences for all parties involved.
