Auto Accident Statistics in Texas

Every year, hundreds of thousands of motor vehicle crashes occur on Texas roadways, affecting individuals, families, and communities across the state. While many collisions result in property damage alone, thousands cause life-changing injuries or fatalities.

According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), Texas recorded: 

These numbers illustrate how quickly a routine drive can become a life-altering event. Behind every statistic is a person facing medical treatment, financial uncertainty, emotional trauma, or the loss of a loved one.

Many of these crashes are preventable. Speeding, distracted driving, impaired driving, failure to yield, and other negligent behaviors remain among the leading contributors to serious motor vehicle collisions across Texas. TxDOT continues to emphasize that responsible driving and adherence to traffic laws are essential to reducing injuries and saving lives.

If you were injured because another driver failed to exercise reasonable care, you should not have to bear the financial burden alone. An experienced Corpus Christi car accident attorney can investigate the cause of the crash, preserve critical evidence, and pursue the compensation you may be entitled to recover under Texas law.

Understanding Texas Car Accident Laws

Texas follows an at-fault insurance system, meaning the driver responsible for causing the collision is generally responsible for the damages that result. Victims typically pursue compensation through the at-fault driver’s insurance carrier or, when necessary, through litigation.

Texas also follows a modified comparative fault rule. If you are found to be 50% or less responsible for the accident, your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are more than 50% responsible, you generally cannot recover damages.

Understanding how these rules apply requires careful evaluation of the facts, evidence, and applicable law.

Black box data
