Our thoughts are with the girl who was hurt in this Cape Coral crash.
A reportable crash happens in Florida approximately every 92 seconds. Due to the presence of a large number of negligent and irresponsible drivers on our roadways, no one is ever truly safe from being hurt in a Florida car accident. Each day, numerous innocent victims suffer injuries due to the actions of other motorists. These injuries can cause tremendous pain and suffering, high medical costs, and lost income due to missing work.
