Fatal Car Accidents in Texas
Every year, more than 3,900 people are fatally injured in traffic crashes across our state. In fact, nearly 80% of accidents in our state are due to driver error. Some leading causes of collisions we see each year include:

These and other acts of negligence continue to have an overwhelming impact on families who are forced to deal with the negative consequences of losing a loved one.
