Car Accidents in Utah
Traffic-related injuries are a common concern throughout Utah, especially in cities like Provo where traffic congestion and frequent turning points contribute to collisions. In 2023, over 25,000 people were hurt in car crashes across the state. These numbers show how important it is for all road users to remain alert and cautious.
Crashes can lead to a wide range of physical consequences. Here’s what to know about injury types that often result from car accidents:
- Soft Tissue Injuries: Whiplash, sprains, and strains are common in low to mid-speed crashes. Though they may not always show on X-rays, these injuries can be painful and require physical therapy, rest, and long-term pain management.
- Bone Fractures: Arms, legs, ribs, and facial bones are vulnerable in collisions. Broken bones may take weeks or months to heal and can limit a person’s mobility and ability to work or perform daily tasks.
- Head Trauma: Even with airbags, victims may suffer from concussions or more serious brain injuries. These can result in dizziness, confusion, or memory issues and may require specialized neurological care.
- Back and Spine Injuries: Injuries to the spine or surrounding muscles can lead to chronic pain or mobility limitations. Some victims may need surgery or extended rehabilitation depending on the severity.
- Internal Injuries: Blunt force trauma from a crash can cause damage to internal organs. These injuries are not always visible immediately and require prompt medical evaluation to prevent serious complications.
