Car Accidents in Texas

Texas roadways see thousands of accidents every year, many resulting in injuries or fatalities. The Texas Department of Transportation reports that in 2023, an average of one reportable crash occurred every 57 seconds. Many of these accidents take place in urban areas like Houston, where high traffic volumes increase the risk of collisions.

Here are some of the leading causes of vehicle crashes in Texas:

• Speeding – Excessive speed reduces reaction time and increases the severity of accidents. Speed-related crashes often result in serious injuries or fatalities.
• Distracted Driving – Activities like texting, adjusting the radio, or eating while driving divert attention from the road, leading to avoidable accidents.
• Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, coordination, and reaction time, making impaired drivers a significant danger on the road.
• Running Red Lights and Stop Signs – Disregarding traffic signals and signs can lead to T-bone or head-on collisions at intersections.
• Poor Weather Conditions – Rain, fog, and ice create hazardous road conditions, increasing the likelihood of losing control of a vehicle.
