Car Accidents in Michigan

The impact of a motor vehicle accident on your life can be truly devastating. Each year, tens of thousands of individuals end up hospitalized with severe injuries following crashes on our roads. Sadly, many of these accidents could have been prevented. Innocent individuals continue to suffer due to the irresponsible and negligent behaviors of other drivers. Some common causes of these accidents include running red lights, tailgating, speeding, adverse weather conditions, driver fatigue, drunk driving, distracted driving, reckless driving, and poor road conditions.

Negligence on the road can lead to catastrophic consequences for drivers and pedestrians alike. When motorists fail to operate their vehicles safely—by speeding, texting, driving under the influence, or ignoring traffic signals—it often results in accidents, causing serious injuries to victims. Common injuries reported in car collisions comprise spinal cord injuries leading to paralysis, internal organ damage posing life-threatening risks, head trauma causing mood and memory issues, and broken bones necessitating extensive medical attention that can include surgeries, physical therapy, and prolonged hospital stays.
