According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, there are approximately 400,000 reported car accidents in Florida each year. This number may seem high, but it represents the very real danger to motorists on our roadways. Being involved in an injury crash can be devastating for victims and their families and can result in extended hospitalizations, along with costly medical treatment and lost wages. Many car accidents in Florida take place because of the actions of a negligent driver and, as a result, many innocent victims will suffer injuries that should have been avoidable.
