Pedestrian Accidents in Texas
Pedestrian accidents are some of the most devastating incidents on Texas roads. Young children are especially vulnerable because drivers often fail to notice them until it’s too late. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, thousands of pedestrians are seriously injured or killed in traffic crashes each year across the state.
Most of these accidents occur in urban areas like Dallas, where heavy traffic, speeding, and distracted driving create dangerous conditions. Even a brief moment of inattention can change a family’s life forever.
Victims often suffer traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, internal bleeding, or broken bones. These injuries require extensive medical treatment and can permanently affect a person’s ability to walk, work, or enjoy daily life. For young victims, recovery can be even more difficult, often involving years of rehabilitation and emotional healing.
Beyond the physical harm, the emotional and financial consequences can overwhelm families. Medical bills, therapy costs, and lost income quickly add up, placing families under immense stress.
