Car Accidents in Utah
Across Utah, traffic collisions continue to impact the lives of residents every day. Whether due to speed, distraction, or weather, thousands of injury accidents are reported each year. Salt Lake City, in particular, sees frequent crashes in both residential and commercial zones. The Utah Department of Public Safety encourages drivers to remain alert and obey posted signs to help reduce these incidents.
Let’s examine some of the hidden costs crash victims often face after an accident:
- Rehabilitation and Therapy: Recovery doesn’t end at the hospital. Physical therapy, occupational therapy, and long-term rehabilitation may be needed and can cost thousands over time.
- Home Modifications: For more serious injuries, adjustments like wheelchair ramps or accessible bathrooms may be necessary. These expenses are rarely anticipated but become essential.
- Childcare and Household Help: Injured victims may no longer be able to care for their children or manage daily tasks. Temporary assistance can be costly and emotionally stressful.
- Mental Health Services: Anxiety, PTSD, or depression following an accident often require professional support. Therapy sessions and prescriptions may not be fully covered by insurance.
- Transportation Issues: Without a working vehicle, victims may rely on rideshares or public transit. Repair costs, rental vehicles, or total loss replacement are added financial burdens.
