Car Accidents in Texas
Car accidents happen every day across Texas. The Texas Department of Public Safety reports that someone is injured in a crash about every two minutes. Busy intersections in cities like Plano see many of these collisions, especially during rush hour when traffic is dense and drivers are often in a hurry.
Most crashes occur because of driver negligence. Common causes include speeding, distraction, and unsafe lane changes. Fatigue, tailgating, and poor weather can also reduce reaction time and increase the risk of losing control. Even one careless mistake can lead to serious harm for everyone involved.
The impact of these crashes can be devastating. Victims often suffer severe injuries such as broken bones, head trauma, or back and neck damage. The pain can last for months, and many people struggle with mounting medical bills and time away from work. Families often find it difficult to recover both emotionally and financially after a serious wreck.
