Car Accidents in Texas
Texas sees a high number of traffic accidents each year, with thousands of crashes leading to injuries and fatalities. The Texas Department of Transportation reported over 19,000 serious injury crashes in 2022, with more than 250,000 people hurt statewide. Major highways like U.S. 75 often experience congestion and collisions due to heavy traffic and high speeds.
Several key factors contribute to highway crashes:
- Driver Fatigue – Long drives and extended travel times can cause drivers to lose focus, increasing the likelihood of mistakes or slowed reaction times. Fatigued drivers are just as dangerous as impaired ones.
- Tailgating – Following too closely reduces reaction time and increases the risk of rear-end collisions. Many accidents on busy highways occur when drivers fail to leave enough space between vehicles.
- Poor Road Conditions – Wet pavement, construction zones, and debris can make highways hazardous. Drivers who fail to adjust to these conditions may cause crashes.
- Merging and Lane Changes – High-speed lane changes and improper merging often lead to sideswipe collisions or vehicles running off the road. Checking blind spots and signaling properly can prevent these types of accidents.
