Car Accidents in Florida

Florida’s highways see a high number of crashes each year, with I-75 being a frequent site of accidents. More than 400,000 vehicle crashes occur annually in the state, with over 160,000 injuries reported. Many of these accidents take place on busy interstates, where high speeds and heavy traffic increase the risk of serious collisions.

Several common factors contribute to highway accidents in Florida, including:

High Speeds – Speeding on highways like I-75 makes accidents more severe, as higher speeds reduce reaction times and increase impact force.
Lane Changes Without Signaling – Drivers who fail to signal or check blind spots before changing lanes can cause dangerous multi-vehicle crashes.
Rear-End Collisions – Sudden braking on highways often results in chain-reaction crashes, particularly in congested traffic.
Drowsy Driving – Long-distance travel can lead to driver fatigue, impairing reaction time and increasing the risk of falling asleep at the wheel.
Tire Blowouts – Worn-out or underinflated tires can burst at high speeds, causing drivers to lose control and crash.
