Drunk Driving Accidents – Houston, Texas

Texas leads the nation in drunk driving accidents and fatal car accidents, according to statistics posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. Texas also squats near the top of the list in the total numbers of car accidents involving commercial trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Some people may “Drive Friendly,” as Texas road signs say, but unfortunately too many others drive recklessly – with too little sleep, and with alcohol or drugs (legal and otherwise) coursing through their systems, threatening their attention and harming their driving skills.

Accidents in Texas and everywhere else are often caused by someone’s not paying sufficient attention, driving distractedly, or worse, texting and driving. Auto and truck Drivers can also be negligent in other ways, including improperly maintaining their vehicle, which can be another important factor in a car or truck wreck.

Houston Truck Accidents – Texas

Anyone involved in a truck accident in Houston may need a truck injury attorney who has experience and training in personal injury cases. People injured in auto or truck accidents need appropriate compensation for their injuries.

Car Accident Lawsuits

Several different types of lawsuits can arise from a car accident. If you were involved in a car accident that became a hit and run, or one that was caused by drunk driving, or even one involving vehicular manslaughter or homicide, a criminal aspect can be added to your case. Most car accidents become personal injury cases; car and truck accidents, in fact, represent the majority of personal injury claims in Texas as well as the rest of the country.

Beware of Signing Waivers

Car accident victims should be wary of signing any wavers that may result in a loss of their rights to proper compensation. Sometimes insurance companies will attempt to settle a case early for a very lowball figure, and hurry an accident victim into signing a wavier that may be against his or her best interests.
