Car Accidents in Texas
Car accidents are a frequent concern in Texas, particularly on major roadways like State Highway 155, where traffic volume and varying speed limits can increase the risk of collisions. Accidents involving multiple vehicles, such as this one, often result in injuries and disruptions to traffic.
Some of the leading causes of crashes in Texas include distracted driving, excessive speed, failure to yield, and poor road conditions. Collisions at intersections or along rural highways can be especially dangerous due to limited visibility and higher speeds.
