Car Accidents in Michigan

Automobile accidents can have devastating consequences, and unfortunately, tens of thousands of collisions resulting in severe injuries occur across Michigan every year. Many of these accidents are caused by negligence, with some of the leading factors in these collisions including:

• Distracted Driving: Activities such as texting, talking on the phone, eating, using GPS, or engaging in anything that diverts a driver’s attention from the road can lead to deadly outcomes. Distracted driving remains one of the most common causes of serious accidents.
• Mechanical Failures: Issues like faulty brakes, worn-out tires, or malfunctioning steering components can cause a sudden loss of control, resulting in accidents. Mechanical problems are often overlooked but can be a significant contributor to crashes.
• Traffic Signal Violations: Disregarding traffic signals, such as running red lights, ignoring stop signs, and failing to obey turn signals, is reckless behavior that puts everyone on the road at risk.

Unfortunately, we continue to witness accidents on Michigan's roadways due to these and other negligent actions. Victims of these accidents are often left with severe injuries, including head trauma, broken bones, and internal organ damage.
