Car Accidents in Texas

The state of Texas is no stranger to motor vehicle accidents. In fact, one accident happens roughly every 2.5 minutes that ends in injuries. These incidents add up to more than 205,000 people left with injuries each year. Although many crashes result in minor injuries for those involved, a significant number of parties sustain severe injuries that require emergency medical care.

Some of the most common contributing factors to crashes in our state include:

Speeding: Many drivers go above the speed limits while traveling along our roadways. When drivers are traveling at high rates of speed, they are likely to lose control of their vehicles and have problems stopping in time to avoid a crash.

Distraction: We see many accidents occur due to drivers using their cell phones. In other instances, drivers are distracted by food, radios, and even their passengers. Taking your attention off the road for a moment can have severe consequences.

Impairment: Many people are involved in accidents due to drivers who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Driving while impaired significantly increases drivers’ chances of losing control of their vehicles and causing devastating crashes.

If you have been injured in an accident due to these or other acts of negligence, you may have legal options available to help you recover. Reaching out to our car accident lawyers in San Antonio as soon as possible can help to ensure you are able to get justice.
