Car Accidents in Florida

Every year, Florida experiences hundreds of thousands of car crashes, with many resulting in serious injuries. From urban intersections to local highways, vehicle accidents are an unfortunate but regular occurrence across the state. In 2023, more than 250,000 people were injured in crashes statewide. The Florida Highway Patrol continues to respond to these events daily.

Understanding how injuries can affect victims after a crash is important. Below are some of the most common types of injuries suffered in Florida crashes:

Whiplash and Soft Tissue Injuries: These are some of the most frequently reported injuries. They occur when the neck or spine is violently jolted during a crash. Even at low speeds, whiplash can lead to lingering pain, reduced mobility, and the need for physical therapy.
Broken Bones: The force of impact often causes fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, or pelvis. These injuries may require surgery, casts, or months of recovery. In severe cases, victims may experience long-term impairment or chronic pain.
Head and Brain Injuries: From concussions to traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), head trauma is a serious risk in any vehicle collision. These injuries can affect memory, cognitive function, and emotional well-being, often with lasting effects.
Back and Spinal Cord Injuries: Crashes can result in herniated discs, nerve damage, or even paralysis. These injuries often involve ongoing treatment, mobility challenges, and significant changes to a victim’s lifestyle.
Lacerations and Internal Injuries: Broken glass and debris can cause deep cuts or internal organ damage. These injuries are not always visible but may be life-threatening without prompt medical attention.
