Car Accidents in Ohio
Ohio experiences thousands of car accidents each year, many of which result in serious injuries. In cities like Columbus, factors such as speeding, distracted driving, and failure to yield contribute to a significant number of collisions. Accidents can happen at any time, and early morning crashes are often linked to driver fatigue or impaired driving.
Some of the most common injuries in vehicle collisions include:
- Whiplash and Neck Injuries – The sudden force of impact can strain muscles and ligaments, leading to long-term discomfort and mobility issues.
- Head Injuries – Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can occur if a victim’s head strikes the steering wheel, dashboard, or window.
- Back and Spinal Cord Injuries – Damage to the spine can result in chronic pain, nerve damage, or even paralysis in severe cases.
- Broken Bones – High-impact crashes frequently cause fractures, which may require surgery and extensive rehabilitation.
- Internal Injuries – Blunt force trauma from a crash can lead to internal bleeding or organ damage, which may not be immediately apparent but can be life-threatening.
Seeking medical attention after an accident is crucial, even if injuries seem minor at first. Some conditions may take hours or days to show symptoms.
