Car Accidents in Texas
Texas sees a high volume of motor vehicle crashes every year. With a vast network of highways and urban roads, the state reports thousands of injury-related accidents annually. In 2023 alone, over 19,000 serious injury crashes occurred across Texas, leaving tens of thousands hurt. Speeding, driver inattention, and impaired driving remain leading factors in collisions throughout the state.
Crashes like these often result in significant challenges for victims. Here are some common injuries sustained in car accidents:
- Whiplash and Neck Injuries – A sudden impact can cause severe strain on the neck, leading to long-term pain and mobility issues. Many victims experience stiffness and headaches for weeks or months after a crash.
- Back Injuries – Herniated discs, fractures, and spinal damage are frequent in high-impact crashes. These injuries can cause chronic pain and sometimes lead to permanent disability.
- Head Trauma – Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are common in serious collisions. Even minor head injuries can result in cognitive issues, memory loss, and persistent headaches.
- Broken Bones – Fractures are common in car accidents, especially to the arms, legs, and ribs. Depending on the severity, they may require surgery and lengthy rehabilitation.
