In most cases, the blind spot or no zone will be towards the rear end of a car, on both sides. Trucks, SUVs, and other larger vehicles have larger blind spots, ones that run along both sides of the vehicle as well as behind the vehicle. When vehicles drive alongside a car or truck in these no zones, car accidents in North Miami can easily occur if a driver changes lanes or tries to make a turn without checking behind them. Unfortunately, these accidents are all too common, even though they are highly preventable.
The attorneys at Flaxman Law Group have worked with thousands of car accident survivors and personal injury plaintiffs on cases involving blind spot accidents and other types of collisions and injuries.

Blind Spots Lead To Catastrophic Personal Injury In North Miami And Other Florida CommunitiesBlind spot accidents can lead to many types of serious injuries, including:
Of course, these types of injuries will not only cause severe distress and pain, but can also change virtually every area of your life. A serious head injury or spinal cord injury, for example, can prevent you from returning to work and everyday activities. Moreover, the injuries that you may sustain in a blind spot traffic accident can be extremely expensive to treat. You may need months or years of treatment, physical therapy, surgeries, and more. You may need to pay for taxicabs to get to and from doctors’ appointments. In addition, if you have been permanently injured you may experience lifelong costs. For example, amputation patients need to update their prosthetics every few years, often at substantial cost. Pursuing compensation now is important to protect yourself financially.
Why Are Blind Spot Car Accidents So Devastating?Blind spot accidents tend to be severe because in many cases they involve a larger vehicle and a much smaller vehicle. These types of accidents occur when a negligent driver fails to carefully check their blind spots before backing up, changing lanes, or making another maneuver. When these types of accidents involve a tractor-trailer and a smaller passenger car for example, the results tend to be devastating and the smaller car can be crushed or severely damaged in the process. When these types of accidents involve a passenger car and a motorcyclist or bicyclist, the motorcyclist or bicyclist is likely to suffer fatal or life-threatening injuries.
