Car Accidents in Michigan

Every year, thousands of people across Michigan are injured in motor vehicle accidents on highways, rural roads, and city streets alike. Serious collisions like the one at Lansing Highway and South Sheridan Road in Gaines Township can happen in an instant, leaving victims and families to deal with painful injuries, sudden medical bills, and lost income. Even with safe driving, the reckless or distracted actions of others can change lives in seconds.

Understanding how to stay safer and what risks to look out for is vital:

• Aggressive Driving: Drivers who speed, weave through traffic, or tailgate are more likely to cause accidents. Aggressive behavior behind the wheel often leaves other motorists with no time to react.
• Driver Fatigue: Drowsy driving is just as dangerous as driving drunk. Fatigued drivers have slower reaction times and impaired judgment, increasing the chances of a crash.
• Road Hazards: Potholes, debris, or poorly marked construction zones can lead to unexpected collisions. Drivers who don’t adjust to these hazards often cause crashes.
• Inexperienced Drivers: Younger or less experienced drivers may misjudge distances, speeds, or traffic signals. This inexperience can contribute to dangerous mistakes at intersections or during lane changes.
• Multi-Vehicle Pile-Ups: On highways and busy roads, one small mistake can lead to chain-reaction crashes involving multiple vehicles. These pile-ups often result in severe injuries and complex insurance claims.
