Car Accidents in Michigan

Being involved in a motor vehicle accident can have devastating consequences. Unfortunately, tens of thousands of people across Michigan suffer serious injuries from car crashes every year. Many of these accidents are caused by negligent and reckless drivers. Some of the most common factors leading to these collisions include:

• Impaired Driving: Drivers under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medications often have impaired judgment and slower reaction times, which increases the likelihood of accidents.
• Speeding: Driving over the speed limit raises the risk of losing control, increases stopping distances, and can result in more severe injuries in the event of a collision.
• Right-of-Way Violations: Failing to yield at intersections, stop signs, or in other situations can lead to dangerous accidents, including head-on collisions.

Sadly, serious accidents continue to happen because of these and other reckless actions taken by drivers on Michigan roads.
