Texas Motor Vehicle Accidents Attorney Blog

The Texas Department of Public Safety is not yet releasing the name of a 19-year-old that died in an accident that is still under investigation. The fatal accident occurred on Highway 83 near Falcon Dam. The driver of the vehicle the teen was in was listed as being in serious condition at the time of the accident.

What is known so far is that a Ford Focus was traveling northbound on Texas Highway 83. For as yet unknown reason, the driver of that car lost control which sent the car rolling. The car finally came to a stop, but not before it smacked into a tree.

Authorities in the northern Texas city of Forth Worth are investigating an accident that took the life of a man. The driver of the pickup truck is blaming a tiny puppy for the car accident. Amazingly, the little puppy in question actually survived the crash.

According to police, the driver told them the passenger was holding the puppy and then suddenly threw it into the driver's lap. He said the passenger thought the puppy was about to throw up. At this point, the driver lost control of the pickup truck and crashed.

A Texas woman has been listed as being in critical condition in a hospital in the Fort Worth area. It seems the woman suffered serious injuries after being involved in just one of several recent car accidents in the Cleburne area. At first glance, it appears that all of the accidents were caused by one or both drivers not paying attention.

The accident the woman was in occurred as she was traveling northbound on U.S. 67. At the same time, the driver of a pickup truck headed south was on his cell phone getting directions. As he started making a left turn, he rammed into the driver's side of the woman's vehicle. The driver told police that he did not see the woman's car until it was too late to stop.

Drivers have a responsibility to constantly be aware of potential obstacles in their path when driving in areas where pedestrians may be walking. When a driver fails to pay proper attention while driving, the potential for pedestrian accidents increases significantly. As if to illustrate this point, a Texas A&M student was recently run down.

Two students were crossing a major road in College Station when one of them was struck by a vehicle. After several hours of investigation, police believe they have determined how the accident occurred. The vehicle that hit the student was originally behind another vehicle that slowed down in order to let the students cross the street. The vehicle went around the vehicle that slowed down and ran into the student.
