Auto Accidents in Texas
In Texas, hundreds of thousands of motor vehicle collisions occur every year, resulting in injuries. These accidents result in severe injuries for tens of thousands of victims, who often suffer long-term consequences. Some of the most common injuries reported in vehicle collisions include:
- Spinal cord injuries: back injuries to the spine can have a debilitating impact on victims. Unfortunately, spinal cord injuries can result in paralysis and the need for extensive medical care.
- Internal organ injuries: there is also a chance that victims suffer internal organ injuries in pedestrian accidents. These injuries can affect the lungs, spleen, or even kidneys.
- Broken bones: it is common for victims of pedestrian accidents to suffer broken arms, legs, and even ribs as a result of their accidents. This is due to the fact that these victims are extremely unprotected during accidents and more vulnerable to suffering significant injuries.
