Fatal Car Accidents in Texas
Every day in Texas, around ten people lose their lives in motor vehicle accidents. Tragically, many of these crashes are entirely preventable. We frequently see drivers, passengers, and other travelers lose their lives because of the negligence of others. Some of the leading causes of these fatal crashes include:
- Driving under the influence of alcohol
- Driver inattention
- Speeding
- Failing to yield the right of way
- Running red lights
