Car Accidents in North Carolina
North Carolina car accidents happen every hour of the day, sending hundreds of victims to the hospital every single week. In just one recent year’s time, it was estimated that over 119,000 people were hospitalized as a result of car accidents in the state of North Carolina. These accidents take place due to many different reasons and occur in many different areas. Millions of people are injured in intersection-related accidents every year due to the fact that drivers are not always paying close attention to what is happening around them. When a driver is speeding or is paying attention to their phone, they could wander into an intersection without stopping. This means there is a chance that you could become injured in a serious car accident.
Nobody is ever fully prepared for a North Carolina car accident, though this is a reality that hundreds of thousands of people face every single year. These car accidents can cause both minor and severe injuries, some of which land victims in the hospital or cause them to miss time away at work. Injuries that are most common as a result of intersection-related accidents include whiplash, TBIs, fractures, organ damage, burns, and more. If you have sustained injuries as a result of a car accident, you should always be prepared to speak with a North Carolina personal injury attorney who has your best interests in mind.
