Car Accidents in Michigan

Every year, tens of thousands of people are injured in vehicle collisions across Michigan. All too often, these accidents occur because of negligent and reckless drivers. Speeding, failing to yield, and running red lights are some of the primary causes of these crashes. Unfortunately, such actions can lead to devastating accidents that result in significant injuries. Some of the most common types of accidents reported across the state include:

• Hit-and-Run Accidents: Crashes where the responsible driver flees the scene, leaving victims to deal with the aftermath on their own.
• Underinsured Motorist Accidents: Collisions involving drivers who do not have enough insurance coverage to fully compensate victims for their injuries.
• Rear-End Collisions: Accidents where one vehicle strikes the back of another, often due to following too closely or distracted driving.
• Head-On Collisions: Severe crashes that occur when two vehicles collide front-to-front, often leading to catastrophic injuries.
• Uninsured Motorist Crashes: Accidents caused by drivers who have no insurance coverage, making it difficult for victims to receive compensation.

Any type of collision can cause serious harm to those involved. Sadly, many victims suffer severe injuries like spinal cord fractures, internal organ damage, and other conditions that require extensive medical treatment.
