According to NHTSA, a car accident takes place in Florida every 92 seconds. This is a very sobering statistic and should be a reminder that anyone can be a crash victim at any time. All it takes is one single act of a negligent driver to place innocent victims in harm's way. We hope that anyone who was hurt in this Fort Myers car accident makes a complete and speedy recovery from their injuries.
