Car Accidents in Utah
Across Utah, car crashes remain a significant source of injury and disruption. In 2023, there were more than 25,000 injury-related crashes reported across the state. High-growth areas like St. George are seeing more vehicles on the road, which can increase the likelihood of collisions, particularly during mid-day and afternoon hours.
After a crash, many victims face financial and emotional strain. Here are a few common financial challenges that follow injury accidents:
- Unplanned Medical Bills: Emergency room visits, follow-up care, and medications can cost thousands of dollars—even with insurance. When long-term care or rehabilitation is needed, these costs can become overwhelming.
- Lost Income: If an injury prevents someone from working, they may lose wages or be forced to take unpaid leave. More serious injuries can even result in permanent disability, affecting a family’s long-term financial health.
- Vehicle Damage and Replacement: Auto repairs can be costly, and insurance coverage may not fully reimburse victims. In cases where a car is totaled, arranging new transportation adds another financial burden.
- Insurance Premium Increases: Even when not at fault, a crash can lead to higher premiums. Victims may also face confusion or disputes when insurers attempt to reduce claim payouts or shift blame.
- Childcare and Home Support Costs: While recovering, individuals may need help with everyday tasks, childcare, or transportation. These out-of-pocket costs can add up quickly and are often overlooked by insurers.
