Car Accidents in Michigan

Here in Michigan, vehicle crashes occur daily, often in busy metropolitan areas like Detroit. In a recent year, over 280,000 accidents were reported across the state, and more than 70,000 people suffered injuries. These incidents occur more frequently during morning and evening commutes and often involve distraction, speeding, or poor weather.

After a crash, many people are left facing the physical and emotional toll of recovery. Here’s what to know about common accident-related injuries:

• Head Injuries: Whether from hitting a window or airbag deployment, head trauma can lead to concussions or more serious traumatic brain injuries. These injuries often take time to fully present and can have lasting effects.
• Whiplash and Soft Tissue Damage: Common in rear-end collisions, these injuries can cause pain and stiffness in the neck and shoulders. Recovery may involve physical therapy or long-term management.
• Broken Bones: The impact of a crash can easily fracture limbs, ribs, or other bones, sometimes requiring surgery or extended healing periods.
• Internal Injuries: Some of the most dangerous injuries are not visible right away. Damage to organs or internal bleeding can quickly become life-threatening without prompt treatment.
• Emotional and Psychological Effects: Many victims struggle with post-crash anxiety or stress, which can interfere with daily life and relationships. Mental health care is often a necessary part of the recovery process.
• Bruising and Lacerations: Cuts from shattered glass or flying debris can lead to significant blood loss or scarring. Quick medical attention helps reduce the risk of complications.
