Car accidents in Michigan

Car accidents can have devastating consequences, and unfortunately, tens of thousands of collisions occur in Michigan each year, often resulting in serious injuries. Many of these accidents are the result of negligence. Some common causes include:

• Distractions while driving: Activities such as texting, talking on the phone, eating, or using GPS while driving divert the driver’s attention from the road. These distractions can lead to accidents with serious or even fatal consequences.
• Mechanical errors: Problems with brakes, tires, steering components or other mechanical parts of a vehicle can lead to a sudden loss of control and, consequently, accidents. Regular maintenance is essential, but when mechanical failures occur, they can have catastrophic consequences.
• Violations of traffic signals: Running red lights, ignoring stop signs, and not following traffic laws like turn signals are reckless acts that endanger other drivers. These violations are a common cause of accidents on Michigan’s roadways.

Accidents caused by these and other negligent actions are a common occurrence on Michigan’s roads. Victims of these accidents often suffer serious injuries such as head injuries, broken bones, and damage to internal organs.
