Backup cameras (also referred to as rear visibility technology) have become increasingly common throughout the last decade. As of last year, they've been required on all new vehicles that weigh under 10,000 pounds. People with cars that don't have backup cameras can have them installed, typically on the license plate holder or the rear bumper.
Check for these common injuries after a car accident
You can suffer many types of injury in a car accident, with some more common than others. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding an accident, it's critical to check for injuries and receive immediate medical attention, if necessary.
Accidents can result in amputations
According to the consumer health care website WebMD, there are approximately 1.8 million amputees living in the United States. Their data reveals that amputations of the leg are the most common. Toe, hand, arm, finger and foot amputations follow close behind. While many of these result from illness, many people's limbs are amputated following accidents such as car crashes and fires.
Medical treatment for burn injuries
You can suffer a variety of injuries in a motor vehicle accident, with those to your skin among the most common. Burn injuries are among the most serious, as these are painful and have the potential to cause disfigurement.
When does drunk driving spike?
If you want to avoid serious injuries in an auto accident, you must understand the risks that you face. One of the greatest risks is that of encountering a drunk driver. Despite the fact that driving under the influence is illegal, we still lose thousands of people in these accidents every year.
Negotiating a fair settlement with your insurance after a crash
Residents of Michigan pay substantially more for their automobile insurance than people in almost any other state. That is because the Michigan insurance laws mandate that all drivers carry no-fault insurance.
A motorcycle helmet can save your life
Data published by the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning shows that between 2014 and 2018, there were approximately 131 motorcycle fatalities each year. This marked an increase of over 13 annual deaths over the previous 5-year period. An increasing number of motorcyclists are dying in crashes because they're not wearing helmets when they take to the open road.
