Most Common Car Accident Injuries

A car accident can result in many different types of injuries to many different parts of your body, but major car accidents usually cause major injuries and fender benders usually result in minor or no injuries. However, there are instances when people walk away from a totaled car and instances when a minor collision causes a lifetime of pain and disability.

Negligence and Car Accidents

In a majority of car accidents that cause injuries, negligence is a contributing factor.  Negligence is defined as a person’s failure to use necessary care in order to prevent damage to another. Negligence in the form of aggressive and reckless driving behaviors is the primary cause of thousands of car accidents every year that result in injuries and wrongful deaths.

Victims of car accidents have the legal right to financial compensation for their medical expenses, loss of income, property damage and pain and suffering.

Common Car Accident Injuries

• Face and head trauma
• Brain injuries
• Spinal cord and neck injuries
• Back injuries
• Leg and foot injuries
• Psychological trauma
• Wrongful death

Not all car accident injuries are obvious immediately following the incident. Traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries such as whiplash may not manifest themselves until hours or days later. You should be examined by a physician after a car accident even if you think you have escaped injury.

The Importance of Seeking Medical Attention

Another reason why car accident injury victims should always seek medical attention immediately after the accident is that the medical reports from first responders, physicians and hospitals will be gathered as evidence for any future lawsuits related to the car accident. These reports may increase your ability to recover the maximum financial compensation for your injuries and the mere fact you did not seek medical attention will tend to minimize your injuries.
