Car Accidents in Florida
Florida’s major highways, including I-75, are essential transportation routes that frequently experience vehicle crashes. Express lanes, designed to improve traffic flow, can also become accident-prone during peak commuting hours due to higher speeds, driver inattention, and lane changes.
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) reported over 390,000 crashes statewide in 2023, leading to more than 250,000 injuries. High-traffic areas like I-75 NB near Miramar often see increased accident risks, particularly during busy travel times.
For victims of car accidents, injuries can range from minor to severe, requiring immediate medical attention, ongoing care, and financial recovery. Medical bills, property damage, and lost wages are common challenges faced by those involved in collisions.
Understanding one’s legal options is critical for securing compensation for losses caused by negligent driving. Florida law allows accident victims to pursue claims for damages to help them recover physically and financially.
