Car Accidents in Texas

Carrollton, TX – Crash on Columbian Club Dr & Belt Line RdTexas sees thousands of car accidents every year, many of which occur at intersections. Data from the Texas Department of Transportation shows that in 2022, over 30% of traffic crashes statewide took place at intersections.

Here are some common causes of intersection accidents:

  • Failure to Yield: Drivers often misjudge the right of way, leading to dangerous collisions.
