We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the man who lost his life in this accident. Our thoughts are with them at this time.
Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents in Texas
Motorcycle accidents in the state of Texas take the lives of over 450 people every year. Even with helmets on, riders are more likely to suffer severe injuries due to the fact that they are exposed during impact. These accidents can often be contributed to some form of negligence. In fact, nearly 80% of accidents in our state are due to driver error. Some leading causes of collisions we see each year include:
- Driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol
- Speeding
- Not seeing motorcyclists in blind spots
- Using cell phones to talk or text while driving
- Eating while operating vehicles
These and other acts of negligence continue to contribute to life-changing accidents across our state every day. Losing a loved one is one of the most challenging things that a person can endure. The mental and emotional consequences are made worse by the towering costs of funeral arrangements, lost earnings, and other financial obligations they endure.
When victims are killed in motor vehicle collisions, due to the negligence of others, families may have legal options available to help them move forward. Seeking the assistance of a wrongful death lawyer in Tomball can help you get justice.
