Car Accidents in Michigan

Every year in Michigan, thousands of injury-related vehicle crashes occur on roadways statewide. Based on statistics from the Michigan State Police, more than 70,000 accidents led to injuries in one recent year alone. These numbers stress how common crashes are across the state, from busy intersections to neighborhood roads. Michigan continues working toward safer roadways, but accidents still happen in large numbers each year.

When an accident turns someone’s life upside down, knowing what to expect can make a difference. Below are some critical facts about common injuries that occur in traffic collisions:

• Neck and Back Injuries: Rear-end and side-impact crashes frequently cause whiplash, herniated discs, or spinal cord injuries. These can result in chronic pain and long-term limitations on movement or daily activity. Even low-speed accidents can cause serious back issues.
• Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Concussions and more severe TBIs are unfortunately common in car crashes. Victims may experience confusion, headaches, memory loss, or changes in behavior. These injuries often require ongoing medical treatment and therapy.
• Fractures and Broken Bones: Arms, ribs, legs, and collarbones are some of the most commonly broken bones in crashes. Healing can take weeks or months, sometimes requiring surgery or physical rehabilitation.
• Internal Injuries: Damage to internal organs or internal bleeding is not always visible immediately after a crash. These injuries can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated quickly.
• Soft Tissue Damage: Muscles, ligaments, and tendons often suffer strain or tears in an accident. While they may not appear serious at first, these injuries can cause long-term discomfort and limit mobility.
