Common Injuries Suffered in a Car Accident
Wearing a seatbelt can save lives and minimize injuries in the event of a car crash. But victims can nevertheless suffer serious injuries in a car accident that can forever impact their lives and the lives of their loved ones. Some common car accident injuries include:
- Head injuries/traumatic brain injuries
- Neck injuries/whiplash

Even if you don’t seem to have injury symptoms immediately following the collision, it is still important to seek medical attention.

As such, getting medical treatment after a crash can help prevent additional injuries.
