Car Accidents in New Jersey
Car accidents involving multiple vehicles can cause severe harm to everyone involved. The busy roads of Jersey City see frequent traffic during rush hours, making collisions more likely. When several vehicles collide, the force of impact can result in a range of serious injuries for drivers and passengers alike.
Victims of multi-vehicle collisions often face painful and long-term injuries that may include:
- Whiplash and neck injuries: Caused by sudden movement of the head and neck.
- Broken bones: Arms, legs, ribs, and collarbones are especially vulnerable in high-impact crashes.
- Spinal injuries: Damage to the spinal cord can result in long-term mobility issues or paralysis.
- Head trauma: Concussions and traumatic brain injuries are common when the head strikes a hard surface.
- Internal bleeding: Hidden injuries can become life-threatening if not treated promptly.
- Cuts and bruises: Shattered glass and deployed airbags often cause facial and limb injuries.
Even injuries that appear minor at first can worsen over time. Seeking immediate medical attention is critical to ensure proper diagnosis and care. Accident victims may also face emotional trauma, such as anxiety or post-accident stress, that requires ongoing support.
