Car Accident in North Lauderdale
Car Crashes and Brain Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries are among the most serious injuries caused by car accidents. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirms that traffic crashes are one of the top-two causes of these devastating injuries that can leave victims with changes in:
- Memory, reasoning, and thinking
- Physical sensations, such as taste, smell or touch
- The ability to use or understand language
- Emotions and their expression
Brain injuries can leave victims unable to move about and can lead to development of epilepsy and other conditions.
The CDC estimates that 1.7 million people suffer traumatic brain injuries in the U.S. every year. More than 52,000 lose their lives.

North Lauderdale is a small city of just over 40,000 residents in the center of Broward County. Planned by architect Morris Lapidus who designed Miami’s iconic Fontainebleau Resort, North Lauderdale was to be his “City of Tomorrow.” Today, Lapidus’s influence is still reflected in street shapes and other landmark features. North Lauderdale is relatively new, dating to 1963, when it laid the foundation for growth as an affordable community offering easy access to South Florida’s beaches. As Broward County continues to grow, North Lauderdale attracts residents from across the U.S. and beyond.
