Car Accidents in Texas
Traffic accidents happen frequently across Texas, with thousands of crashes reported each year. In a recent year, over 4,400 fatalities and more than 244,000 injuries occurred on Texas roads. Many of these crashes are caused by distracted driving, speeding, and reckless behavior.
Understanding how to reduce accident risks is crucial. Here are some common causes of crashes in Texas:
- Speeding – Driving above the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the severity of crashes. High speeds make it harder to stop in emergencies, leading to more severe injuries.
- Distracted Driving – Using a phone, eating, or adjusting the radio can take a driver’s attention off the road. Even a few seconds of distraction can result in a crash.
- Driving Under the Influence – Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, reaction time, and coordination. DUI-related crashes often have devastating consequences.
- Failing to Yield – Many accidents occur at intersections when drivers fail to yield the right of way. These collisions can be especially dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists.
- Poor Weather Conditions – Rain, fog, and ice can make roads slippery and reduce visibility. Drivers must adjust their speed and braking distance in hazardous conditions.
