Car Accidents in Texas
Texas sees thousands of car accidents every year, leading to injuries and fatalities. According to recent data from the Texas Department of Transportation, in one year alone, over 15,000 crashes resulted in serious injuries statewide. Many of these collisions occur in major cities like Houston, where high traffic volume increases the risk of crashes.
Understanding the common reasons behind accidents can help prevent future incidents. Some frequent causes of collisions include:
- Distracted Driving – Cell phone use, eating, or other distractions take a driver’s attention away from the road, increasing the likelihood of a crash.
- Speeding – Exceeding speed limits or driving too fast for road conditions reduces reaction time and increases the severity of accidents.
- Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drug use impair judgment and reaction times, leading to many preventable crashes.
- Failure to Yield – Many accidents occur at intersections where drivers fail to yield the right of way, leading to dangerous collisions.
