Car Accidents in Florida

Every year, tens of thousands of people are injured in traffic crashes throughout Florida. The Sunshine State saw more than 390,000 reported collisions in 2023, many of which led to emergency room visits, rehabilitation, and long-term consequences. From busy highways to local parkways, these accidents occur across a wide range of road conditions and driver behaviors.

Let’s take a closer look at some common types of injuries that victims face after being involved in a motor vehicle accident.

  • Neck and Back Injuries: The sudden jolt from a crash can result in spinal injuries, herniated discs, or whiplash. These types of injuries may require physical therapy, pain management, or even surgery, and can leave lasting discomfort and mobility limitations.
  • Fractures and Broken Bones: Collisions frequently lead to broken arms, legs, ribs, and other bones. Depending on the severity, these injuries may need surgical correction and weeks or months of recovery before the person can resume normal activities.
  • Burns and Lacerations: When airbags deploy or windows shatter, passengers may suffer cuts, abrasions, or burns. Some of these wounds can lead to scarring, infection, or require specialized care to heal properly.
  • Internal Injuries
    Trauma to the chest or abdomen during an accident can result in internal bleeding or organ damage. These injuries are often life-threatening and require immediate medical attention and sometimes emergency surgery.
  • Joint Damage: The impact of a crash can also damage knees, shoulders, or hips, particularly in high-speed collisions. These injuries can cause long-term joint pain and may limit a person’s ability to walk or lift objects.
