Broward County, FL – Auto Accident on I-75 S near Mile Marker 35 with Injuries

Broward County, FL - Auto Accident on I-75 S near Mile Marker 35 with Injuries

Broward County, FL (May 24, 2021) – A serious auto accident occurred in Broward County on the afternoon of May 24 that resulted in injuries and traffic delays. Reports show that the wreck happened at around 3:11 p.m., though the contributing factors of the incident have not been reported. 

Sources indicate that the collision took place on Interstate 75 in the vicinity of Mile Marker 35. All lanes of the interstate were blocked for an extended time period following the crash in order to allow responders to assist those involved at the scene. 

Emergency medical technicians treated an unspecified number of injured crash victims on-site before transporting those in need of further care to area hospitals by ambulance. Their names have not been reported at this time. 

Police in Broward County continue to investigate the details of the collision. Our thoughts are with everyone involved. We hope for the full recovery of the injured victims. 

Florida Auto Collisions

The rate of injurious and deadly traffic accidents that occur in Florida is higher than nearly any other state in the United States. This is accounting for both the average number of yearly miles traveled along with the population of our state. According to recently compiled statistics, Florida is the third highest state in the nation for fatal motor vehicle accidents. Approximately 400,000 car accidents occur per year in the Sunshine State, and around 3,000 of them turn out to be fatal. On average, the state sees more than 1,000 traffic accidents take place per day. This is equal to a crash taking place approximately once every 84 seconds. The stark reality of the car accident statistics in Florida is this: we have some of the most dangerous roads in the entire nation.   

One study that looked at data in 2018 concluded that Florida possesses the fourth most dangerous drivers in America. Florida is a no-fault state, which means that each driver’s insurance pays for their own medical costs following a collision. This combined with the accident statistics makes for extremely perilous driving. Crashes are not only very likely to occur in the Sunshine State, but may result in serious injuries or death, without an obvious insurance remedy to cover the associated costs.
