Auto Accidents in Texas
Car accidents are an unfortunate reality in Texas, causing harm to innocent individuals every day due to the negligence of some drivers. Several key factors contribute to accidents across the state, including:
- Failure to Obey Traffic Signals: Ignoring stop signs, traffic lights, and other road signs can lead to severe and often tragic accidents.
- Driving Under the Influence (DUI): Besides alcohol, driving under the influence of drugs—whether prescription, over-the-counter, or illegal—poses a significant danger on the roads.
