Car Accidents in Texas
Vehicle accidents are a leading cause of serious injury across Texas. In 2023, Texas experienced over 4,000 fatalities and thousands more non-fatal but life-altering injuries due to auto accidents. These collisions are often caused by distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield. The aftermath of a crash can disrupt every aspect of a victim’s life—from finances to physical health and emotional well-being.
Accidents can impact victims in many ways. One major area is the financial strain. Here’s a closer look at how that burden often plays out:
-
Emergency Medical Costs: After a crash, immediate care such as ambulance transport, emergency room services, and imaging tests can result in thousands of dollars in bills. Even with insurance, out-of-pocket expenses can pile up quickly, adding financial stress to an already difficult situation.
-
Ongoing Treatment and Rehabilitation: Injuries like back trauma, fractures, or head injuries may require long-term care, physical therapy, or even surgery. These ongoing treatments come at a cost and may extend for months—or longer.
-
Lost Wages: Many victims are unable to return to work right away. Missed time at work, whether temporary or permanent, often results in lost wages that can take a heavy toll on families trying to keep up with everyday bills.
-
Vehicle Repairs or Replacement: Depending on the severity of the crash, victims may be left without transportation. Repair bills or the cost of a new vehicle are burdens many are unprepared to shoulder alone.
-
Other Incidental Costs: From childcare during doctor visits to travel costs for seeing specialists, accidents often generate a host of unexpected expenses. These smaller costs add up quickly and increase the stress that victims and their families face.
