Car Accidents in Texas
Car accidents happen every day across Texas, with thousands of crashes reported each year. Many result in injuries ranging from minor to severe, impacting victims and their families both physically and financially. Understanding the common causes of these crashes can help drivers stay alert and reduce risks on the road.
Some frequent causes of car accidents include:
- Distracted Driving – One of the leading causes of crashes, distractions like texting, eating, or adjusting the radio take a driver’s attention away from the road, increasing the chance of an accident.
- Speeding – Driving above the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the severity of a crash. High speeds make it harder to stop quickly in case of an emergency.
- Weather Conditions – Rain, fog, and ice can make roads hazardous. Drivers who fail to adjust their speed and maintain safe distances in poor weather conditions are more likely to be involved in accidents.
- Running Red Lights and Stop Signs – Disobeying traffic signals can lead to dangerous side-impact collisions at intersections. Even a momentary lapse in judgment can result in serious consequences.
- Driver Fatigue – Drowsy driving impairs reaction time and awareness, making it just as dangerous as driving under the influence. Fatigue-related crashes are especially common during late-night and early-morning hours.
