Probably, by now, you might be wondering why you need a car accident attorney in Houston. The most important thing to realize is that accidents are unanticipated and can lead to costly lawsuits. Whether you are a perpetrator or a victim, you always need someone who is well-equipped with legal knowledge in this discipline to get you the best outcome.

In 2017, over 20,000 people were involved in car accidents in the State of Texas only. Out of this number, 3721 of the victims lost their lives—not the nicest fact to know.

Therefore, we can agree that accidents are amongst the leading cause of deaths in the US. This begs the question of what causes these car accidents.

According to a study conducted by the Texas Department of Transportation, many people who were interviewed thought that driving under the influence of alcohol was the main cause of car accidents in Houston. Even though DUI as its share, distractions on the road takes the cake.

It is disappointing to see, despite most of the road users being well aware of general rules and safety measures; they still ignore them and engage in reckless behavior. In this regard, we will look at some common causes of car accidents.

OVER SPEEDING

Research shows that most fatal accidents happen when the involved party are over speeding. People will always claim they were involved in these infractions because they wanted to save time.

What good will it do you when you are dead or lying helplessly in an emergency room. It is very hard to steer a car at high speed. In fact, a slower car comes to a halt quicker than a fast-moving automobile. Before speeding, always remember you are sharing the road with other road users and personal responsibility is of the paramount essence.

DUI

“Let’s go and celebrate my new promotion.” This is a common scenario in day-to-day life. However, if alcohol is involved, do not let a celebration turn into a mishap by driving.

Alcohol reduces concentration and impairs judgment. Additionally, it reduces the reaction time of the human body. If you want to live to see another day, just call Uber or let someone sober drive you.
