Car Crashes in Michigan

The Michigan State Police keeps records on the number of people injured in auto accidents in the state each year. According to their most recent statistics, drivers of motor vehicles are more likely to be killed in a crash, accounting for 574 fatalities last year. The next closest groups were passengers with 153 fatalities, motorcyclists with 166, and pedestrians with 183. To put it into perspective, a driver was involved in just over half of the reported traffic fatalities in the state of Michigan. 

Your health is the most important thing after a crash. Go to the doctor or emergency room first if you have a personal injury, and please do not hesitate. If you do not have health insurance, Michigan’s no-fault act will reimburse your medical expenses. Many injuries, such as minor traumatic brain injuries or even damaged spinal discs, might not seem as bad at first, and it is possible that you will not realize how serious the injury is until much later. This is why it is crucial to see a doctor right after following a car accident.

You should not represent yourself after an auto accident. If you are getting a call from the at-fault insurance company, it is likely just an effort to take advantage of your lack of knowledge and experience in the legal field. Before you have the chance to consult with a Detroit personal injury lawyer who specializes in auto and truck accident cases, insurance companies are known to make extremely low settlement offers to unsuspecting car accident victims. Before agreeing to any terms with an insurance company, contact an accident attorney to determine the real value of your claim.
