Car Accidents in Michigan

Thousands of car accidents occur each year across Michigan, leading to serious injuries and fatalities. According to recent statistics, over 50,000 crashes in the state result in injuries annually. Many of these accidents happen at busy intersections, where traffic flow and driver behavior contribute to collisions.

Understanding what leads to crashes can help drivers stay vigilant on the road:

• Distracted Driving – Looking at a phone, eating, or adjusting in-car controls can take a driver’s focus away from the road. Even a momentary distraction can lead to serious crashes, especially in high-traffic areas.
• Failure to Obey Traffic Signals – Running red lights or stop signs is a common cause of intersection accidents. Drivers who fail to yield the right of way put themselves and others in danger.
• Driving Too Fast for Conditions – Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to react in time to avoid an accident. Even if a driver is within the speed limit, weather and road conditions may require slower speeds to maintain control.
• Tailgating and Sudden Stops – Following too closely behind another vehicle increases the risk of rear-end crashes. Keeping a safe following distance gives drivers more time to react and avoid collisions.
• Fatigue Behind the Wheel – Tired drivers have slower reaction times and impaired judgment. Falling asleep at the wheel, even for a second, can lead to severe accidents.
