Car Accidents in Michigan

According to the Michigan State Police, crashes involving multiple vehicles are particularly dangerous due to the number of people and cars involved. In 2022 alone, thousands of Michigan residents were injured in similar incidents, highlighting the need for caution and proper response following a crash.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common reasons these multi-vehicle crashes occur on highways:

• Sudden Lane Changes: High-speed driving combined with quick lane changes can lead to collisions, especially when drivers don’t check their blind spots.
• Distracted Driving: Taking your eyes off the road for even a second—due to cell phones, food, or navigation systems—can cause rear-end or side collisions in heavy traffic.
• Tailgating: Following too closely is especially risky on highways. When the lead vehicle stops suddenly, the result can be a chain-reaction crash involving several cars.
• Speeding: Exceeding speed limits reduces reaction time. At high speeds, even a minor mistake can lead to a serious pileup with multiple injuries.
• Weather Conditions: Rain, fog, or snow can make roads slippery and reduce visibility. These conditions often contribute to multi-vehicle wrecks.
• Failure to Yield or Merge Properly: Confusion at exit ramps or merging points—like the Springport Road connection—can easily lead to vehicle overlap and crashes.
