Car Accidents in Michigan

In Michigan, intersections like Gratiot Avenue and Conner Street are common sites for serious vehicle collisions. Heavier traffic, multiple turning lanes, and fast-paced movement often contribute to higher accident rates in these areas. Thousands of crashes each year occur at intersections across the state, many resulting in injuries.

When two cars collide, especially in dense urban settings, a number of factors may be involved:

• Failure to Yield: One of the most common causes of intersection accidents is a failure to yield when making left turns or entering the roadway from side streets.
• Signal Confusion or Violations: Misunderstanding or ignoring traffic signals can quickly result in a crash, particularly during peak traffic hours.
• Speeding Through Intersections: Drivers trying to beat changing lights often accelerate, increasing the chance and severity of a collision.
• Driver Distractions: Phones, radios, and other in-car distractions can prevent drivers from reacting quickly enough to avoid an accident.
• Shared Fault: In many two-car crashes, determining fault isn’t always simple. Investigators often rely on eyewitness statements and surveillance footage to piece together what happened.
