Car Accidents in Texas

Texas sees a high number of car accidents each year. In 2022 alone, the Texas Department of Transportation recorded over 4,000 fatalities and hundreds of thousands of injuries due to motor vehicle crashes. Many of these accidents occur on urban roadways, where traffic congestion and driver errors increase the risk of collisions.

Understanding the factors that contribute to accidents can help drivers stay safe on Texas roads. Below are some common causes of crashes:

• Distracted Driving – A significant number of accidents happen because drivers take their eyes off the road. Cell phone use, adjusting controls, and even talking to passengers can lead to crashes.
• Speeding – Driving over the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the severity of accidents. High speeds make it difficult to stop in time to avoid collisions.
• Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drugs impair judgment and reaction time, leading to severe and often fatal accidents. Texas law enforcement continues to crack down on impaired drivers.
• Failure to Yield – Many crashes occur at intersections when drivers fail to yield the right of way. Ignoring traffic signs and signals can result in dangerous T-bone collisions.
• Weather Conditions – Rain, fog, and other weather conditions can make roads slippery and reduce visibility, increasing the likelihood of crashes.
