Common Causes of Car Accidents in Southwest Florida
Understanding the cause of your car accident is critical in proving fault and seeking fair compensation. In Collier County and the broader Southwest Florida region, the most common causes of car accidents include:
Distracted Driving
Smartphones, GPS devices, and other in-vehicle distractions continue to cause serious crashes. A driver taking their eyes off the road for just five seconds at 55 mph can travel the length of a football field blindly.
Drunk and Drugged Driving
DUI accidents remain a top concern, especially during tourist seasons and holiday weekends. FLHSMV reports show that impaired driving contributes to thousands of crashes across Southwest Florida each year.
Speeding and Reckless Driving
Whether on I-75 or rural roads, excessive speed reduces reaction time and increases the severity of injuries in collisions.
Failing to Yield or Obey Traffic Signals
Running red lights, ignoring stop signs, and failing to yield to oncoming traffic are leading factors in intersection-related collisions, a common occurrence in urban areas like Naples.
Weather-Related Accidents
Heavy rains and flooded roads during hurricane season often contribute to hydroplaning and loss-of-control crashes throughout Collier County.
