Auto Accidents in Florida

Car accidents are a major concern in Florida, with hundreds of thousands of crashes occurring each year. These accidents are often caused by common factors such as distracted driving, speeding, impaired driving, and reckless behavior. Distracted driving, especially due to cell phone use, is a leading cause of accidents in the state. Speeding also significantly contributes to collisions, as it reduces a driver’s ability to react to changes in traffic. Impaired driving, whether due to alcohol or drugs, remains a serious problem on Florida’s roads. Additionally, reckless actions such as running red lights, tailgating, and unsafe lane changes further increase the risk of accidents.

Victims of car accidents in Florida often suffer from a variety of injuries that can have long-lasting effects on their lives. Common injuries include whiplash, broken bones, concussions, spinal cord damage, internal injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. These conditions may require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation, placing physical, emotional, and financial strain on victims and their families.
