Common Car Accident Injuries

Car accidents can result in a range of serious injuries, and depending on the circumstances of the collision you may need to seek medical help immediately. While you focus on recovering from your accident injuries, our Texas car accident lawyers handle the legal side of things.

  • Whiplash Caused by sudden back-and-forth movement of the head and neck upon impact, straining muscles, tendons and ligaments in the neck area, resulting in pain, stiffness and reduced range of motion.
  • Broken bones/fractures – The force of impact can cause bones in the arms, legs or ribs to crack or break.
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) – The head may experience significant impact or sudden deceleration, leading to brain injuries ranging from mild concussions to severe brain damage. Symptoms can include dizziness, headaches, confusion and even coma.
  • Soft tissue injuries – Damage to muscles, tendons and ligaments from the forces involved in the collision.
  • Spinal cord injuries – Vertebrae and discs can be impacted, potentially causing partial or complete paralysis.
  • Internal injuries – Organs can be punctured or ruptured by the extreme forces in a car crash.
  • Cuts, burns and disfigurement – Broken glass, explosions and vehicle deformities can cause severe lacerations, burns and permanent scarring.
  • Emotional/psychological trauma – The shocking nature of a serious accident can lead to PTSD, anxiety, depression and other mental health issues.

Texas Car Accident Statistics

Car accidents are an all-too-common occurrence on Texas roads and highways. Despite ongoing efforts to improve vehicular safety and promote responsible driving, the Lone Star State consistently ranks among the top states for traffic collisions, injuries, and fatalities each year.

For 2022 in Texas:

  • According to The Texas Department of Transportation, 1 person was killed every 1 hours 57 minutes,
  • 1 person was injured every 2 minutes 9 seconds
  • At least 1 reportable crash occurred every 57 seconds.

These car accident statistics demonstrate how Texas is one of the most dangerous states for car crashes.

While crashes can happen anywhere, heavily populated metro areas like Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin tend to have higher concentrations of collisions due to more traffic congestion. Rural roads and highways across Texas’ vast landscape also remain dangerous, with higher speed limits and the dangers of run-off-road and head-on collisions.

Common Causes of Car Accidents in Texas

Texas roadways see far too many devastating car accidents each year, many of which could have been prevented. While collisions can result from a variety of circumstances, a large portion stem from basic negligent decisions and behaviors exhibited by drivers across the state.

Top Causes of Car Accidents in Texas

  • Distracted Driving
  • Impaired Driving
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Speeding
  • Reckless Driving
  • Fatigued Driving
  • Poor Weather Conditions
  • Vehicle Defects
  • Road Hazards

By understanding these common causes, drivers in Texas can take steps to avoid negligent behaviors and drive more defensively to prevent devastating accidents from occurring.

If you’ve been injured in an accident a Texas personal injury lawyer can help you seek compensation. Our car accident lawyers at AK Law Firm have years of experience in personal injury cases such as pedestrian, motorcycle, wrongful death, and more.

What Do I Need To Do After a Car Accident In Texas?

  1. Move to a safe area if possible and call 911 to report the accident, especially if there are any injuries.
  2. Obtain medical attention right away if you or your passengers are hurt, even if injuries seem minor at first. Seeking prompt treatment creates documentation.
  3. Contact the police to have an official accident report filed. Getting a police report is crucial evidence.
  4. Collect information from the other driver(s) involved such as names, contact details, license plate numbers, insurance information, etc.
  5. Document the accident scene by taking photos/videos of vehicle damage, injuries, road conditions, traffic signage, and any other relevant details.
  6. Get contact information from any witnesses who saw the collision occur.
  7. Notify your insurance company about the accident as soon as possible, but avoid admitting fault.
  8. Seek medical evaluation even after minor accidents to diagnose any injuries that may not be immediately apparent.
  9. Follow your doctor’s treatment plan exactly and keep records of all medical documentation related to your injuries.
  10. Consider consulting an experienced car accident lawyer to understand your legal rights and options for pursuing compensation.

By taking these important steps after a car crash in Texas, you protect your ability to file insurance claims properly and strengthen any personal injury case going forward.

I’ve Been Involved in a Texas Car Accident: What Should I Know?

What types of car accident cases do you handle?

At AK Law, our experienced attorneys represent clients injured in all types of auto collisions in Texas including car accidents, truck wrecks, motorcycle crashes, pedestrian and bicycle accidents, uber/rideshare incidents, and more. We handle cases involving catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths.

How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer?

Our car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no upfront costs. Our fees are taken as a percentage of your final settlement or award amount after we secure compensation for you. If we don’t win, you don’t pay attorney fees.

How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit?

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions, so it’s best to consult with a lawyer as soon as possible to preserve your rights.

What damages am I entitled to after an accident?

Depending on your case, compensatory damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, vehicle repair costs, pain and suffering, disability or disfigurement, emotional distress, loss of earning capacity, and more. Our lawyers fight to maximize your recovery.

Do I have a case if I was partially at-fault?

Under Texas’ proportionate responsibility laws, you may still recover damages from other at-fault parties even if you share some percentage of fault, as long as your responsibility is not greater than 50%.

Should I provide a statement to the insurance company?

No, you should avoid giving any recorded statements about the accident to an opposing insurance company, as they may try to use your words against you later to minimize your claim. Let your lawyer handle all communication.

What if the other driver didn't have auto insurance?

We can explore other avenues for your recovery such as filing an uninsured/underinsured motorist claim with your own policy or taking action against any other liable parties involved.

How long do car accident cases typically take?

While many cases settle in 6-12 months, complicated factors like serious injuries can extend the process longer. We will clearly explain what to expect based on the specifics of your situation.
