Car Accidents in Michigan

Motor vehicle accidents in Michigan remain a frequent source of injury across the state. According to the Michigan State Police, there were over 293,000 crashes reported statewide in a recent year, with nearly 1,100 of them proving fatal. With thousands more resulting in injury, these incidents place a heavy toll on victims, families, and communities across Michigan.

Understanding the types of injuries that can occur in car accidents may help individuals recognize their own symptoms sooner and seek proper care. Below are some of the most common injuries victims may suffer:

• Whiplash and Soft Tissue Injuries: Whiplash is a frequent outcome of rear-end crashes. It can cause neck pain, stiffness, and headaches that may not appear immediately. Soft tissue injuries in the back or limbs can also linger long after the collision.
• Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): TBIs range from concussions to more serious brain trauma. Even a mild concussion can impact cognitive function and emotional stability. It’s crucial to be evaluated by a doctor after any blow to the head.
• Spinal Cord and Back Injuries: The spine is vulnerable in many types of collisions. Herniated discs, nerve damage, or spinal fractures can lead to long-term mobility issues and may require surgery or physical therapy.
• Broken Bones and Fractures: Broken ribs, arms, or legs are common in serious crashes. Some fractures heal cleanly, while others require surgical intervention and months of rehabilitation.
• Internal Injuries: Blunt force trauma from seatbelts, airbags, or vehicle intrusion can lead to internal bleeding or damage to organs. These injuries can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated.
