Car Accidents in California
California experiences some of the highest rates of vehicle collisions in the country. The state’s dense traffic patterns, urban sprawl, and busy intersections contribute to thousands of injury-related accidents annually. In 2023, over 150,000 people were injured in car crashes across California.
These events often lead to lasting consequences for victims. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most common injuries that result from California car accidents:
- Whiplash and Neck Injuries: One of the most frequently reported injuries, especially in rear-end collisions. Whiplash can cause persistent pain, stiffness, and headaches that require ongoing physical therapy or pain management.
- Broken Bones: Fractures to arms, legs, or ribs are common in side-impact or high-speed crashes. Recovery may involve surgery, casting, or extended periods of rehabilitation to regain strength and mobility.
- Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Even low-speed crashes can lead to head injuries if occupants hit windows, steering wheels, or airbags. Symptoms can range from mild confusion to long-term cognitive and emotional changes.
- Spinal Cord Injuries: These injuries can be life-altering and may include partial or complete paralysis. They often require extensive medical care and lifelong support.
- Soft Tissue Damage: Muscle sprains, ligament tears, and bruising are frequently overlooked at first but may worsen without treatment. These injuries can affect a person’s ability to work or perform daily tasks.
