Car Accidents in Florida
Florida sees a high number of vehicle accidents each year due to its busy roadways. According to state data, there are over 400,000 crashes annually, leading to thousands of injuries and fatalities. Accidents on major highways often involve several key factors. Below are some common causes of crashes on Florida roads:
- Distracted Driving – Cell phone use, adjusting controls, or other distractions significantly increase the risk of accidents. Even a brief moment of inattention can have severe consequences.
- Speeding – Driving over the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the force of impact in a collision, making injuries more severe.
- Fatigue – Drowsy driving impairs judgment and slows reaction times, leading to many highway accidents, especially in the early morning or late at night.
- Weather Conditions – Florida’s frequent rainstorms create slick roads, reducing traction and increasing the likelihood of hydroplaning and crashes.
- Following Too Closely – Tailgating leaves little room for error, often leading to rear-end collisions, particularly in stop-and-go traffic.
