Car Accidents in Michigan

Car accidents in Michigan are unfortunately common, with thousands of incidents occurring each year. According to the Michigan State Police, there were over 314,000 reported traffic crashes in 2019 alone. These accidents resulted in over 75,000 injuries and more than 900 fatalities. The impact of these accidents is far-reaching, causing both physical and emotional distress to victims and their families.

Common injuries resulting from car accidents include whiplash, concussions, broken bones, and internal injuries. Whiplash often occurs in rear-end collisions, causing neck and back pain that can last for months. Concussions, a form of traumatic brain injury, can occur even in minor accidents, leading to symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and cognitive difficulties. Broken bones are also prevalent, especially in high-speed collisions, and often require surgery and extensive rehabilitation. Internal injuries, such as damage to organs or internal bleeding, are particularly dangerous as they may not be immediately apparent and require prompt medical attention.

Emotional trauma is another significant consequence of car accidents. Victims may experience anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which can further complicate recovery. The combination of physical pain and emotional distress can lead to a long and challenging healing process.
