Car Accidents in Florida
Florida’s interstate highways, particularly I-95, are known for heavy commuter traffic and frequent accidents, especially at exit ramps where merging and lane changes increase collision risks. Speeding, driver distraction, and abrupt braking are common contributing factors in these types of crashes. When roadblocks occur, congestion can worsen, leading to additional safety concerns.
Under Florida law, drivers involved in injury accidents must remain at the scene, report the incident to law enforcement, and seek medical attention if needed. Victims may also have the right to pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Investigations into these crashes help establish liability and ensure that those impacted receive the support they need.
To reduce accident risks, drivers should remain alert, slow down near exits, and allow ample space when merging or changing lanes. If you or a loved one has been injured in a crash, legal guidance can help you understand your rights and options for recovery.
