Deadly Head-On Crashes in Texas

Any type of crash can be fatal, but head-on collisions continue to be involved in a substantial number of deadly auto accidents each year in the United States. Despite making up less than 2 percent of reported crashes nationwide, almost 10 percent of deadly crashes involve head-on impacts. The force of impact is tremendous when two vehicles traveling in opposite directions collide. These accidents can be caused by motorists who veer into oncoming traffic or inclement roadway conditions that cause a driver to lose control. Whatever the case, head-on crashes can be severe, and it is important that you are able to partner with a trained lawyer in order to make sure your legal rights are protected after a fatal accident.
