Common Car Accident Injuries

Injuries in a car accident may range from mild to severe. Some of the most devastating injuries do not appear right away; therefore, it is crucial to seek immediate medical care after an accident and attend all follow-up appointments. Typical car accident injuries include:

• Whiplash is the most common car accident injury. It is named for the fast, whip-like motion of a body from front to back. Whiplash can be very painful, and it can take weeks or months to heal
• Scrapes and cuts
• Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries. Traumatic brain injuries may cause long-term problems with brain function, headaches, and sleeping difficulties. Brain injuries are sometimes difficult to diagnose a brain injury and require a treatment plan to avoid lifelong complications
• Broken ribs
• Broken and fractured bones
• Internal bleeding
• Herniated discs, spinal cord injuries, and paralysis
• Knee trauma
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
• Emotional trauma

Causes of Car Accidents

There are many causes of car accidents. However, the number one reason for car accidents is not a weather condition or road hazard. It is distracted driving.

Distracted driving occurs when a driver is not paying attention to the road. Usually, this happens when a driver is talking or texting on their cell phone, eating, or looking elsewhere in the vehicle. Other reasons for car accidents may be the following:

• Speeding
• Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
• Reckless driving
• Road rage
• Inclement weather
• Failure to follow traffic signals
• Inexperienced drivers
• Driving at night
• Vehicle design defects
• Road hazards or construction
• Drowsy driving
• Poor vehicle maintenance
• Animals
