Car Accidents in Texas
Texas roads see hundreds of crashes every day, from rural highways to residential neighborhoods like the one on Longfellow Dr. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, one person was injured every two minutes and nine seconds in a traffic crash in 2023. These numbers highlight just how common accidents are across the state, and how quickly lives can be changed in their aftermath.
Here’s what people often face after being injured in a car wreck in Texas:
- Filing an Insurance Claim: Victims usually start by reporting the accident to their insurance company. It’s important to be cautious during this process—especially when discussing the crash with adjusters. They may try to minimize your claim or push for a quick settlement that doesn’t cover long-term needs.
- Medical Appointments and Treatment: Even after emergency care, many crash victims face a long road of treatment—physical therapy, follow-ups, medications, and possible surgeries. These visits can quickly become expensive, especially if insurance won’t cover everything.
- Vehicle Repairs or Replacements: Getting your car fixed—or replaced—isn’t always simple. Parts delays, repair shop wait times, and disputes over fault can all affect how soon you’re back on the road.
- Lost Wages and Missed Work: Even a minor injury can mean days or weeks off the job. For hourly workers or small business owners, that lost time can create a serious financial strain.
- Mental and Emotional Toll: An accident often leaves behind more than physical pain. Stress, sleep issues, anxiety, and even depression can follow—and these effects deserve attention and care just like physical injuries.
- Legal Confusion: Many victims aren’t sure what they’re entitled to or how to protect themselves. That’s why having someone who knows the system can make all the difference.
