Car Accidents in Texas
Car accidents affect hundreds of thousands of people in Texas each year, with tens of thousands requiring extensive medical care for serious injuries. Tragically, many of these accidents result from preventable negligence. Common causes of vehicle collisions include:
- Improper Turns: Illegal or unsafe turns, such as failing to signal or cutting off other drivers, frequently lead to accidents.
- Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol or drugs significantly impair judgment and reaction time, often causing severe or fatal crashes.
- Distracted Driving: Activities like texting, eating, or adjusting controls while driving divert attention from the road, contributing to numerous collisions.
These preventable behaviors injure countless individuals daily, leaving victims to cope with the physical, emotional, and financial aftermath of a crash.
