Florida Rear End Collision Lawyers

Most rear end collisions occur because a driver is not paying full attention to the road in front of him or her. The driver may be talking on the cell phone, texting, eating, drinking, adjusting the radio or talking to a passenger and may take his or her eyes off the road for a split second – and this is all it may take for an accident to occur. The person driving the first car may stop suddenly or may already be stopped, and the driver behind may not have time to react properly, therefore colliding with the rear end of the first vehicle.

Injuries in Rear End Collisions

The injuries that a victim may sustain in a rear end collision are often unique, most often due to the front driver seeing the vehicle approaching from behind and bracing for impact. In addition to soft tissue injuries that may be sustained from whiplash, the driver may sustain injury to the wrists, knees or ankles from supporting him or herself against the impact. Either driver in a rear end collision may suffer injury from airbag deployment, as it may strike the face or even the hands and cause scraping injury or even broken bones in some cases.
