Car Accidents in Michigan

A motor vehicle accident can have a profound and life-changing impact on your family, often occurring in an instant. Every year in Michigan, thousands of people are injured in car accidents, many of which are caused by drivers acting negligently. Common causes of these accidents include:

• Distracted driving: This occurs when a driver takes their attention away from the road, whether it's due to texting, talking on the phone, or adjusting the radio, leading to a significant increase in the risk of collisions.

• Failure to yield at intersections: Many accidents happen when drivers neglect to give way to other vehicles or pedestrians at intersections, often resulting in dangerous t-bone collisions.

• Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol: Operating a vehicle while impaired by substances greatly diminishes a driver's reaction time and decision-making abilities, making it a leading factor in many serious accidents.

• Speeding or driving too fast for road conditions: Ignoring speed limits or not adjusting speed in response to adverse weather conditions can reduce a driver's control over the vehicle, increasing the likelihood of losing control or being unable to stop in time to avoid an accident.
