Accident Situations
Motor vehicle accidents happen daily in Phoenix, Arizona and result in a variety of Phoenix personal injury circumstances.
Insurance claims range on many different levels, but for the most part, they can be characterized in three basic categories. A minor accident is of the fender bender variety where various minor injuries could result. Scratches, scrapes and minor soft tissue injuries may be typically expected upon minor injury occurrences.
The neck and back of passengers in minor injuries is susceptible to injury due to seat belt compression and the jerk experienced when two vehicles collide or a vehicle collides with a stationary object. Airbags which deploy as a result of a collision at times can cause injury. Such injuries are typically scrapes and scratches from the sudden impact of the body to the bag.
A major accident can be accidents where a fatality has occurred or a serious Phoenix personal injury is suffered. Many times the injuries may take many months of medical treatment, rehabilitation and time away from work and other recreational activities.
Finally, medium types of accidents involve injuries not serious or life threatening, but are more significant than minor accidents. Most people have been involved in at least a minor type of accident at one time or another in their life.
