Fatal Car Accidents in Texas

San Antonio, TX – Fatal Truck Wreck on US-281 at Thousand Oaks DrEvery day in Texas, a tragic number of fatal motor vehicle accidents occur, leaving families devastated by the loss of loved ones. Many of these fatalities could have been prevented if not for the negligent actions of others. Some of the most common factors contributing to these preventable crashes include:

  • Reckless driving: Aggressive behaviors, such as tailgating and weaving in and out of traffic, often lead to dangerous and fatal situations.
  • Poor weather conditions: Rain, snow, or fog can drastically reduce visibility and road traction, requiring drivers to adjust their habits and drive with extra caution.
  • Speeding: Driving over the speed limit or too fast for road conditions reduces the time available to react to sudden changes, significantly increasing the likelihood of serious accidents.
  • Distracted driving: Activities such as texting, eating, or even adjusting the radio take a driver’s focus away from the road and can impair their ability to respond to unexpected situations.
