Every day, car accidents kill and injure the unsuspecting.
The accidents and injuries that can be suffered as the result of a car accident are wide ranging, and can result in both long term and short term injuries and disabilities.
All of these have the potential to affect individuals far into the future.
Common Car Crash Injuries While accidents can and too often do result in death, many accidents end in both short term and long term injuries and disabilities.
Some of the most common injuries obtained during motor vehicle collisions include the following:

• Head and brain injuries, which are often the result of impact with parts of the vehicle, like the windshield
• Neck and spine injuries, similar and often related to the head injury.
  These can range from whiplash to seriously injured spinal discs.
  
• Suffocation, which can be caused by improper airbag deployment
• Burns, often caused by seat belts or airbags
• Broken bones and scarring, often related to impact injuries

A car accident can happen for many different reasons.
From bad weather to road defects, there are many factors that can unexpectedly make the road unsafe.
However, vehicle accidents are too frequently caused by the negligence of others.
When this occurs it is important that you have the support of an experienced legal professional who will help you fight for the compensation you need to recover from your accident.
