Car Accidents in Texas
Texas experiences a significant number of car crashes each year, with more than 19,000 serious injury accidents reported annually. Rural roads, like East Line Road near Whitewright, can be particularly dangerous due to narrow lanes, high speeds, and limited access to immediate emergency assistance.
Accidents like this one can lead to severe injuries. Here are some of the most common injuries victims suffer in rollover crashes:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) – A rollover crash can cause head trauma, leading to memory loss, cognitive impairments, or permanent disabilities.
- Spinal Cord Damage – Injuries to the spine can result in chronic pain, mobility issues, or paralysis, depending on the severity of the damage.
- Fractures and Broken Bones – The force of a vehicle flipping can cause severe bone fractures that may require surgeries and extensive rehabilitation.
- Internal Injuries – Blunt force trauma can lead to internal bleeding or organ damage, which can be life-threatening if not treated quickly.
- Lacerations and Soft Tissue Injuries – Shattered glass and the vehicle’s impact can cause deep cuts and bruising, sometimes leading to long-term scarring.
