Fatal car crashes in Texas remain a significant concern due to their frequency and impact. Speeding, distracted driving, and failure to obey traffic laws are common causes of these tragic incidents. Speeding increases the risk of accidents and the severity of injuries. Distracted driving, such as texting or using phones while driving, diverts attention away from the road, leading to collisions. Ignoring traffic signals or right-of-way rules can result in devastating accidents. These factors contribute to the high number of fatal car crashes seen in Texas each year.
