One of the most common and unfortunately, one of the most dangerous types of accidents in which a victim can be involved is a car accident. Statistics say the nearly every single person in America will be involved in some form of auto accident in their lifetime. Many of these accidents result in serious injuries such as broken bones, concussions, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputation, dismemberment, permanent scarring and in all too many cases, even death. The driver responsible for causing an accident can be held responsible in court for the injuries caused to a victim, and made to pay compensation for not only the damages to property such as vehicles or other property, but also to pay for medical expenses such as immediate expenses and future medical expenses necessary because of the injuries sustained.
