Car Accidents
Car accidents can happen at any moment. There are multiple reasons why they may occur. The biggest contributing factor in car wrecks is driver distraction, which can take many forms. Everything from cell phone usage, adjusting the radio, and looking at scenery to passengers, children, and driver fatigue can be considered driver distraction. All of these things can contribute to car accidents. Rubbernecking is also a large problem, particularly in urban areas. Rubbernecking involves the driver becoming absorbed in the activity on the side of the road, including recent wrecks or someone who has been pulled over by a police car. This type of driver behavior tends to slow down traffic and cause more accidents.
While some car accidents are minor fender benders, others can cause serious injuries or even death. If you were in a car accident, you may have incurred injuries that required special medical treatment. Fractures, disc herniation, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, or soft tissue injuries are typical to car accidents. These can impact your life significantly, depending on the severity and number of the injuries you sustained.
