Car Accidents in Ohio
Ohio is no stranger to motor vehicle accidents, with thousands of collisions reported annually. Intersections are particularly dangerous due to high traffic volumes and the risk of driver error. According to recent state data, over 300,000 crashes occur in Ohio each year, with many resulting in injuries.
Here are some common causes of accidents:
- Distracted Driving – Activities like texting or using a phone while driving take attention off the road, significantly increasing the risk of collisions.
- Speeding – Excessive speed reduces the driver’s reaction time and can worsen the severity of an accident.
- Failure to Yield – Accidents frequently occur when drivers fail to yield at stop signs, intersections, or traffic signals.
- Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drugs are leading factors in serious crashes, impairing reaction times and decision-making abilities.
Injuries from car accidents can vary widely, including whiplash, broken bones, head injuries, and more. These injuries often require costly medical treatment and long recovery times.
