Detroit, MI - Injuries Reported in Collision on I-96 Past Davison

Detroit, MI (November 5, 2023) - Drivers in Detroit were coping with traffic delays on Sunday afternoon after a rollover crash on I-96.

The local and express lanes of the freeway were closed around 4:00 p.m. after the crash, which happened on the eastbound lanes just past Davison.

It was not immediately clear what caused the crash or if anyone was injured, though multiple emergency vehicles were on the scene. Traffic was at a standstill from at least the Southfield Freeway, authorities stated.

The total number of injured victims is unknown, but EMTs were spotted at the scene by local news footage.

Highway patrol officers urged motorists to choose an alternative route as the on-scene investigation proceeded. MSP troopers asked any witnesses to get in touch.

We are thinking about the injured victims and their loved ones at this time, and we hope for their full recovery.

Car Accidents in Detroit

Although handling the fallout after a vehicle accident in Michigan may be aggravating and uniquely difficult, you can take a few straightforward steps to protect your legal rights.

First and foremost, all drivers in Michigan should be aware that if injuries or property damage following a vehicle collision exceed $1,000, a police report must be filed. The accident site will be fully documented in the police report, with the names and contact details of any witnesses and the names and policy numbers of relevant insurance companies.

It is critical to get medical help immediately after a crash, regardless of your injuries' apparent severity (or lack thereof). A victim's quality of life might be negatively impacted even by relatively modest injuries. Additionally, injured parties must maintain thorough records as soon as any evidence of injuries or other symptoms develops to establish that the accident caused the victim's ailments. Likewise, you should make an appointment with your doctor if you develop any new symptoms or injuries after starting treatment. Record the frequency and severity of any expenses, discomfort, and adjustments to your treatment regimen brought on by the accident.

To fully heal after an injury, remember that you must participate in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and frequent examinations with your primary care physician. Furthermore, your claim and any potential legal action depend on your participation in a proper treatment plan. Insurance adjusters in Michigan frequently contend that an accident victim who refuses medical attention or frequently reschedules appointments with their doctors was not seriously hurt and is ineligible for benefits or compensation.
