Car Accidents in Michigan

In 2022 alone, there were more than 293,000 motor vehicle accidents on Michigan roadways. Unfortunately, many of these crashes resulted in injuries to those involved. Being hurt in a car accident can have a life-changing impact. Victims often suffer from serious injuries such as head trauma, internal organ damage, broken bones, and other physical harm that can affect them for the rest of their lives.

There are several types of car accidents that commonly occur on our roads every year, each with its own set of causes and consequences. Some of the most frequent include:

• Intersection crashes: These often happen when drivers fail to yield or run red lights, leading to dangerous collisions at busy junctions.

• Uber and Lyft accidents: With the rise of rideshare services, accidents involving these vehicles have become more prevalent, often due to driver inexperience or distractions.

• T-bone (broadside) collisions: This type of accident occurs when one vehicle strikes the side of another, typically at intersections, and can result in severe injuries due to the lack of protection on the side of the impacted vehicle.

• Sideswipe accidents: These happen when two vehicles move parallel to each other and make contact, often due to lane changes or driver inattention.

• Highway construction zone accidents: Roadwork can create hazardous conditions, and accidents often occur when drivers fail to heed warning signs or navigate poorly marked detours.

• Drunk or impaired driving crashes: These tragic incidents are preventable yet continue to be a leading cause of severe accidents, highlighting the importance of responsible driving and awareness.
