Car Accidents in Florida

Across Florida, motor vehicle crashes are a regular occurrence, often leaving behind serious injuries and traffic disruption. Data from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles shows that nearly 400,000 accidents were reported across the state in 2023. These crashes can leave long-term impacts on victims’ health, finances, and daily lives.

Many collisions are caused by preventable driver behaviors. Distracted driving remains one of the most frequent causes of accidents, often due to cellphone use, eating, or interacting with in-car tech. Speeding is another major factor, reducing reaction time and increasing crash severity. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can lead to catastrophic outcomes, even at low speeds. Finally, failure to obey traffic signals, stop signs, or yield rules contributes to a large percentage of urban crashes. Awareness and accountability remain key to reducing these events.
