Car Accidents in Michigan

Every day, innocent individuals in Michigan become victims of accidents, leading to tens of thousands being hospitalized annually due to roadway collisions. Sadly, many victims endure substantial consequences due to the actions of reckless drivers. Common factors contributing to vehicle crashes throughout our state include:

• Inexperienced drivers: New drivers may lack the necessary skills and judgment needed to navigate complex traffic situations safely.

• Aggressive driving: Behaviors such as speeding, weaving through traffic, and road rage increase the risk of accidents.

• Failure to yield: Not yielding the right of way at intersections or when merging can lead to dangerous collisions.

• Tailgating: Following other vehicles too closely reduces reaction time and increases the likelihood of rear-end collisions.

• Mechanical failure: Issues like brake failure, tire blowouts, and other mechanical problems can cause drivers to lose control of their vehicles.

• Disregarding traffic signals: Ignoring red lights, stop signs, and other traffic signals can result in severe accidents at intersections.
