Car accidents have become one of the most common results of driving, and they are typically due to negligence and/or recklessness. Even though they’re called “accidents,” there is almost always someone to blame during a vehicle crash. Causes can include cell phone use, speeding, fatigue, failure to obey traffic laws, distracted driving, and many more. Common injuries stemming from car accidents include:

● Spinal cord injuries ● Neck injuries ● Soft tissue injuries ● Fractures ● Head injuries ● Cuts ● Lacerations ● Bruises

It’s important to know that when you’re involved in a vehicle accident, certain steps should be followed to ensure the causing party is held liable. After an accident, vehicles may become inoperable and are stuck in the flow of traffic. Precautions must be taken so that other drivers are aware of the situation and the vehicles do not cause further accidents or traffic congestion. The police should be notified so that an accident report can be made and information can be exchanged between you and the other party peacefully.

Seek medical attention as promptly as possible. Some medical requirements are evident almost immediately, while others may not become a burden until some time after. Always keep track of all medical procedures and costs. Document and photograph as much of the accident as possible since it could potentially assist you in a possible case, and always notify your insurance company as soon as possible about the accident.
