Car Accidents in New Jersey

New Jersey drivers face thousands of collisions each year, with distracted driving, speed, and intersection crashes among the leading causes. In 2022 alone, the state recorded more than 278,000 motor vehicle accidents, according to state transportation data. Of those, over 60,000 involved injuries. Many crashes, especially those at intersections, happen in densely populated or heavily traveled areas, making them difficult to avoid.

Let’s take a closer look at common injuries that can result from car accidents and how they affect recovery:

• Whiplash and Neck Injuries: One of the most frequently reported injuries in rear-end or side-impact collisions, whiplash results from the rapid back-and-forth motion of the neck. It can cause chronic pain, limited mobility, and headaches. Some cases require physical therapy or long-term treatment to manage symptoms.
• Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): TBIs range from mild concussions to severe brain damage and often go unnoticed at first. Victims may experience confusion, memory loss, dizziness, or mood changes. Quick medical evaluation is essential even if no visible injury is present.
• Spinal Cord Injuries: Damage to the spinal cord can lead to partial or complete paralysis. These injuries may be permanent and often result in long-term rehabilitation, lifestyle changes, and the need for in-home care or mobility aids.
• Fractures and Broken Bones: Collisions commonly lead to broken arms, legs, ribs, and facial bones. While many fractures heal with time, some can result in surgeries, implants, or chronic pain.
• Soft Tissue Injuries: Sprains, strains, and muscle tears can be painful and debilitating. Though they might not show up on X-rays, they can significantly limit movement and take weeks or months to heal.
