Traffic Collisions in Texas
Texas has one of the highest numbers of vehicle crashes in the country, with highways like I-35 being common sites for accidents due to heavy traffic, frequent merging, and distracted driving. High-speed conditions and unexpected lane changes often contribute to collisions, increasing the risk of injuries.
Victims of auto crashes may be eligible for compensation if another driver’s negligence played a role in the accident. Texas follows an at-fault insurance system, meaning that injured individuals can seek damages from the responsible party for medical expenses, lost wages, and other costs.
After a crash, taking immediate steps such as seeking medical attention, documenting the accident, and understanding insurance policies can help protect the rights of those involved. Consulting a legal professional may also assist victims in navigating claims and ensuring they receive fair compensation.
