Car Accidents in Michigan

Motor vehicle accidents are a significant concern in Michigan, with thousands of crashes reported each year. The Michigan State Police data reveals that in 2022 alone, over 293,000 crashes occurred across the state, leading to thousands of injuries and fatalities. Factors such as speeding, distracted driving, and inclement weather often contribute to these incidents, making road safety a constant challenge for Michigan residents.

Understanding common injuries from car accidents can help individuals recognize the severity of their situation:

• Whiplash – A common injury in rear-end collisions, whiplash occurs when the neck is forcefully jerked back and forth. Symptoms may not appear immediately, but pain, stiffness, and headaches often develop in the hours or days following an accident.
• Broken Bones – The impact of a crash can cause fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, or other parts of the body. Recovery times vary, and severe breaks may require surgery or long-term physical therapy.
• Head Injuries – Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage. Even minor head trauma should be evaluated by medical professionals to prevent long-term complications.
• Spinal Cord Injuries – Damage to the spinal cord can lead to temporary or permanent paralysis. Some victims may require extensive rehabilitation and long-term care.
• Lacerations and Bruising – Broken glass, seat belts, and airbags can cause cuts and bruises, which, while often minor, may still require medical attention to prevent infection or scarring.
