Car Accidents in Wellesley, Massachusetts

Accidents on Route 9 and other busy Massachusetts roadways can be particularly dangerous due to high traffic volumes and frequent merging with major highways like I-95/128. Two-

vehicle collisions often cause significant injuries, even at relatively low speeds. Common causes include distracted driving, speeding, sudden lane changes, and failure to yield.

Injuries from these crashes may include whiplash, broken bones, back and spinal injuries, concussions, and facial trauma. Whiplash is common when a vehicle stops suddenly, causing the head to snap back and forth. Spinal injuries, such as herniated discs or fractures, can lead to chronic pain and limited mobility. Broken bones often require surgery or casting, while head and facial injuries may necessitate medical treatment or reconstructive procedures. Emotional trauma, including anxiety and PTSD, is also common following serious accidents.

Consulting a Wellesley car accident lawyer is crucial for anyone injured in a crash.
