Car Accidents in Texas
Texas continues to experience high numbers of car crashes each year, many resulting in serious injuries. The Texas Department of Public Safety reports that motor vehicle accidents occur daily in urban neighborhoods like those throughout Dallas. Whether caused by distracted driving, speed, or misjudged intersections, these collisions can lead to lasting physical and financial effects.
Here’s what you should know if you’ve been involved in a crash:
- Intersection Collisions: Many neighborhood crashes occur at intersections where visibility may be limited. Miscommunication between drivers or failure to yield can result in high-impact crashes.
- Soft Tissue Injuries: Often overlooked, injuries to muscles, ligaments, and tendons can be painful and long-lasting. These injuries may require physical therapy and follow-up care to heal fully.
- Pain Management Needs: Injuries from car accidents can leave victims in chronic pain. Medication, therapy, or even surgical treatment may be required depending on the severity.
- Increased Risk for Seniors: Older adults involved in even minor crashes are more likely to suffer broken bones or long-term complications. Recovery times are also typically longer.
- Property Damage and Financial Strain: Repairing or replacing a vehicle after a crash can be costly, especially if the car is declared a total loss. These expenses often come before an insurance claim is resolved.
