Car Accidents in New Jersey
Car accidents remain one of the leading causes of serious injuries in New Jersey. In urban areas like Jersey City, heavy traffic and busy intersections such as Kennedy Boulevard create constant risks for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians alike.
According to state reports, thousands of collisions occur each year in New Jersey, and many of them result in severe injuries. Common causes include distracted driving, impaired driving, speeding, reckless maneuvers, and driver fatigue. Even one careless decision can lead to a devastating crash that changes lives in an instant.
The consequences are often overwhelming. Victims may suffer broken bones, spinal cord injuries, head trauma, or internal bleeding. These injuries require extensive medical care, surgeries, and rehabilitation. Beyond the physical pain, families face steep medical bills, lost wages, and the emotional stress of long recoveries.
If your crash was caused by another driver’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. This can include payment for hospital bills, lost income, future care needs, property damage, and damages for pain and suffering. But insurance companies often try to limit payouts, leaving victims with less than they deserve.
