San Antonio, TX (January 21, 2022) – On January 17, the San Antonio Police Department was requested on-site at a crash on Wallace Street.

Reports from the San Antonio Police show that a blue 2008 Pontiac was traveling near 749 Wallace Street when the driver disregarded a stop sign at the intersection of South San Dario Avenue. As a result, the vehicle collided with a silver 2012 Dodge.

One person involved in the accident was injured. EMS rendered aid to the victim on-site before transporting them to a local hospital for the treatment of injuries.

At this time, the police department is investigating to determine the cause of the crash.

Our thoughts are with the victim injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.

Car Accidents in Texas

In Texas, we see our fair share of motor vehicle accidents. In fact, roughly every 2.5 minutes, someone is hurt in a traffic-related incident somewhere in our state. These accidents add up to more than 200,000 people every year. Although the majority of accidents end in minor injuries and disruptions for victims, around 15,000 people are hospitalized with severe injuries that require extensive medical care.

These accidents often leave victims with debilitating injuries that require extensive medical care. Some of the most common injuries sustained by serious crash victims include:

  • Broken bones
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Burn injuries
  • Back injuries
  • Soft tissue (neck) injuries
  • Head injuries

These and other injuries often require immediate medical attention. In some cases, victims have to go through long-term care. Not only are injuries incredibly painful and debilitating, but they are often costly to treat. After you leave the hospital, you should reach out to a car accident attorney in San Antonio who can help you recover the compensation you need for these and other expenses you face moving forward.
