Experiencing a car accident can be a pivotal moment in your life, often leading to serious, life-altering injuries. Every year, Michigan reports a staggering number of accidents that result in severe injuries like spinal cord fractures, broken bones, and internal damages, which necessitate long-term medical care. For many victims, the road to recovery includes months of therapy and rehabilitation, a path made even more strenuous if they're unable to work and earn an income due to their injuries.
Regrettably, reckless driving is a common cause behind these incidents. Speeding, impaired driving, and general carelessness on the roads contribute significantly to the high number of vehicle collisions in our state, affecting countless lives every year.
