Car Accidents in Michigan

Motor vehicle accidents are a significant public concern throughout Michigan, with high-traffic areas like Detroit seeing thousands of incidents each year. Data from the state shows that urban intersections are especially prone to injury crashes due to congestion, signal violations, and unsafe turns. Many of these accidents result in long-term consequences for victims and their families.

Understanding who may be liable in a crash can help protect your rights. Here are some potential responsible parties:

• Another Driver: Most often, the at-fault driver is held responsible for the accident. This can involve speeding, running lights, or driving while distracted.
• Vehicle Manufacturers: If a crash was caused by mechanical failure or a faulty part, the vehicle maker may share responsibility.
• Government Entities: Poorly maintained roads, missing signage, or faulty traffic signals can lead to government liability in some cases.
• Employers: If a commercial or company vehicle was involved, the driver's employer could be held accountable under certain circumstances.
• Bars or Restaurants: Under Michigan’s dram shop laws, establishments that overserve alcohol to visibly intoxicated patrons may be held liable for related crashes.
• Multiple Parties: In some cases, more than one party may share fault, leading to a complex claim involving shared responsibility.
