Vehicle Collisions in Texas
Texas highways, including I-35, experience a high number of vehicle accidents each year due to heavy traffic congestion, high speeds, and frequent lane changes. Urban highways, such as those passing through Austin, are particularly prone to collisions during peak travel hours.
Some of the most common causes of highway crashes include distracted driving, sudden braking, speeding, and unsafe merging. When collisions occur at high speeds, the risk of severe injuries increases significantly.
For those injured in traffic accidents, seeking immediate medical attention is essential. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent but can worsen over time. Additionally, understanding legal options can help victims recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
