Car Accidents in Florida

Florida’s roadways are some of the busiest in the nation, and as a result, the state frequently sees a high number of vehicle accidents. With over 400,000 reported crashes each year, thousands of people are injured, requiring medical care and often facing extended recovery periods.

Collisions often occur due to a combination of preventable factors, including:

Driver Inattention: Distractions like texting or talking on the phone lead to accidents every day. Staying alert can prevent many crashes.
Aggressive Driving: Tailgating, cutting off other vehicles, or failing to yield can create dangerous situations. Maintaining patience and following traffic rules is critical.
Intersection Hazards: Improper turns, failing to stop at red lights, or speeding through intersections frequently result in serious crashes.
Vehicle Defects: Faulty brakes, tire blowouts, or other mechanical failures can suddenly put drivers and passengers in harm’s way.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a car crash caused by another driver’s actions, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses.
