Car Accidents in Michigan

Flint Twp., MI - Crash With Injuries at Van Slyke Rd & W Bristol RdAccording to the Michigan State Police, Michigan sees hundreds of thousands of vehicle crashes every year, many of which lead to serious injuries. In 2023, more than 50,000 people were hurt on Michigan roads. Common causes include driver inattention, speeding, and unsafe turns at intersections. These crashes can occur anywhere—from quiet rural roads to busy urban crossings—putting thousands at risk every day.

Understanding how crashes happen can help prevent them. Here are some common causes of traffic accidents that drivers should be aware of:

  • Distracted Driving: Distractions like texting, eating, or using in-car devices are major contributors to crashes. Just a few seconds of diverted attention can lead to serious consequences.
  • Failure to Yield: At intersections, some drivers fail to yield the right of way when required. This often results in T-bone collisions that can cause major injuries, especially when high speeds are involved.
  • Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol and drug impairment significantly reduce reaction time and decision-making. Impaired drivers are responsible for a large number of fatal and injury-causing accidents in Michigan.
  • Tailgating: Following too closely gives drivers little time to respond if the vehicle in front stops suddenly. Rear-end collisions are among the most frequent accident types tied to tailgating behavior.
  • Improper Lane Changes: Failing to signal or check blind spots during lane changes can easily lead to sideswipe crashes. This is especially dangerous on high-speed roads and during heavy traffic conditions.
