Car Accidents in Texas

Texas sees thousands of car accidents each year, with many resulting in injuries. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, there were over 19,000 serious crashes in 2022, causing significant harm to those involved. Urban areas like Houston experience frequent collisions due to congestion, reckless driving, and sudden lane changes.

Understanding the impact of car accidents can help drivers take precautions. Here are some common injuries that result from crashes:

• Spinal Cord Injuries – Serious crashes can damage the spine, leading to nerve damage, chronic pain, or even paralysis.
• Whiplash and Soft Tissue Damage – Sudden jolts from a crash can strain muscles and ligaments in the neck and back, leading to long-term pain and mobility issues.
• Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) – Concussions and head trauma are common in car accidents, even at lower speeds, potentially causing cognitive and physical impairments.
• Broken Bones – Collisions often result in fractures, particularly in the arms, legs, and ribs, which may require surgery and lengthy recovery periods.
