Car Accidents in Michigan

Thousands of crashes occur across Michigan each year, often resulting in injuries or fatalities. Contributing factors such as speeding, distracted driving, and failure to yield continue to make roads hazardous for drivers. Whether on city streets or highways, accidents can lead to significant physical and financial burdens for those involved.

Recognizing the common causes of accidents can help drivers stay safe. Here are some key factors leading to crashes in Michigan:

• Driver Inattention: Distractions like texting, adjusting in-car settings, or talking to passengers can cause drivers to miss critical moments, leading to collisions.
• Speeding: Driving above the speed limit reduces reaction time, making it more difficult to avoid crashes and increasing the severity of injuries.
• Running Red Lights & Stop Signs: Ignoring traffic signals often leads to dangerous side-impact or head-on collisions at intersections.
• Drowsy Driving: Fatigue impairs judgment and slows reflexes, increasing the risk of accidents, especially during early morning or late-night hours.
• Aggressive Driving: Tailgating, improper lane changes, and road rage incidents contribute to many preventable crashes.
