Car Accidents in Florida

Car crashes remain one of the leading causes of injury across the state of Florida. In 2023, there were over 390,000 reported crashes statewide, resulting in more than 250,000 injuries. Accidents like these can occur at any time and in any location—rural, suburban, or urban—and often leave victims facing long recoveries and difficult legal processes.

One important area to understand when dealing with car crashes is how insurance plays a role. Here’s a closer look at common issues victims should know:

Dealing With Delayed Symptoms: Some injuries don’t appear immediately after a crash. Whiplash, internal bruising, or soft tissue injuries might show up hours or days later. Seeking medical care right away helps ensure proper treatment and protects your ability to file a claim.
Understanding Florida’s No-Fault System: Under the no-fault law, your own insurance policy covers medical expenses through Personal Injury Protection (PIP), regardless of who caused the crash. However, this coverage is limited and often doesn’t fully account for lost wages or long-term medical care.
When to File a Lawsuit: If your injuries are serious and meet the state’s threshold, you may be entitled to pursue a personal injury lawsuit outside of the no-fault system. This allows you to seek compensation for pain, suffering, and other damages.
Importance of Police Reports: A police report provides an official record of the crash, which is crucial for both insurance and legal claims. Even if the accident seems minor, always contact law enforcement.
Documenting the Scene: Take photographs of the vehicles, road conditions, visible injuries, and any contributing factors like damaged signs or debris. Strong evidence supports your claim and can help in negotiations or in court.

If you’ve been involved in a crash, reach out to a car accident attorney as soon as possible. A lawyer can help protect your rights, ensure your claim is filed correctly, and advocate for fair compensation. Acting quickly makes a big difference.
