Fatal Car Accidents in Texas

Car accidents in the state of Texas have an overwhelming impact on the lives of numerous families. In fact, more than 270,000 injury accidents occur in our state annually. Although we would like to think that every person involved in a crash is able to get the medical treatment they need to recover from their injuries, this is not the reality of the situation. Instead, more than 3,600 people injured in these accidents end up passing away each year.

Although we can take various steps toward ensuring the safety of other motorists sharing the road, we cannot guarantee that others will act responsibly while sharing the roads with us. Many victims involved in collisions end up losing their lives of being injured in accidents that are completely avoidable. Statistics show that around 80% of all fatal collisions are a result of driver error. When drivers are intoxicated, distracted, or engaging in reckless behaviors while driving, they place others at extraordinary risk of being harmed. Not only do families face overwhelming mental and emotional consequences after losing loved ones, but they are often forced to spend tens of thousands of dollars on end of life expenses. If you have been impacted by a fatal car accident, you should seek legal guidance from a Texas wrongful death attorney as soon as possible.
