Car Accidents in Michigan

Michigan continues to see high numbers of auto-related injuries each year, with more than 70,000 injury crashes reported annually. Cities like Flint often face increased accident risk due to traffic congestion and intersection-related hazards. These crashes can lead to significant physical, emotional, and financial hardship for victims.

Injury crashes can lead to difficult recoveries, especially when medical care and time off work are required. Here’s a closer look at how victims are impacted financially after an accident:

• Medical Bills: Emergency care, surgeries, rehabilitation, and follow-up visits can result in overwhelming bills. Even with health insurance, deductibles and out-of-pocket costs can add up quickly—especially for long-term injuries.
• Lost Wages: Many victims are unable to return to work immediately after a crash. Lost income can disrupt financial stability, making it hard to cover rent, mortgages, or daily living expenses.
• Vehicle Repairs or Replacement: Car accidents often leave vehicles unusable. Between insurance deductibles and gaps in coverage, victims are sometimes forced to pay for repairs or replacements themselves.
• Ongoing Therapy and Treatment: For some, physical therapy or mental health support becomes a long-term need. These services are crucial for recovery but often aren't fully covered by insurance providers.
• Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Travel to medical appointments, home modifications, or assistive equipment may be necessary. These unexpected costs can put additional pressure on an already strained budget.
