What to do if you’ve been injured in a Motor Vehicle Accident:

  1. Report your accident to the appropriate authorities ASAP. Ensure Authorities are contacted and document the scene. Get medical treatment for any injuries you have sustained, don’t “shake it off.” Some injuries, like traumatic brain injuries or internal injuries, can have delayed symptoms. The sooner you can receive medical attention, the better for your health and your case.
  2. Collect as much information as possible. You or someone you trust should attempt to get information from any involved parties. Important information can be the names of all parties involved and any eyewitnesses. If you were in a car crash, get the other driver’s insurance information too.
  3. Take photographs. Photograph the scene, your injuries, the causing factors of the accident, and anything you think may be relevant. If you were injured on someone’s property due to a dangerous condition, take photos of the dangerous condition.
  4. Get copies of all relevant documents. This can include police reports, incident reports, medical documents, and communications with insurance companies.

The more information you have about your case, the stronger your claim will be. If you were injured due to another’s carelessness, contact Lone Star Injury Attorneys to learn more about filing a claim and find out how much a potential settlement could be.

What Are the Leading Causes of Vehicle Accidents in Houston?

A motor vehicle accident can happen for a multitude of reasons, ranging from human error to environmental factors. Here are some common examples of contributing factors:

  • Distracted driving
  • Speeding
  • Drunk driving
  • Reckless driving
  • Tailgating
  • Drowsy driving
  • Aggressive driving
  • Poor road conditions
  • Vehicle defects
  • Failure to yield
  • Inexperienced drivers
  • Improper turns
  • Failure to signal
  • Driving on the wrong side of the road
  • Sudden stops
  • Inadequate following distance
  • Uber/Lyft/rideshare accidents

Who Can Be Held at Fault in a Vehicle Accident?

In a car accident injury case, identifying the parties responsible for the wreck is a critical step in securing fair compensation for your losses. Depending on the circumstances, any of the following parties could be at fault:

  • The Other Driver – The other driver could be liable if their actions, such as speeding, drunk driving, or distracted driving, contributed to the accident.
  • The Vehicle Owner – If the driver does not own the vehicle involved in the accident, the owner could be liable, especially if they knowingly allowed an unqualified driver to operate the vehicle.
  • An Employer – If the driver was acting within the scope of their employment at the time of the accident, the employer could be vicariously liable for the employee’s actions.
  • An Auto Manufacturer – If a vehicle defect contributed to the accident, the auto manufacturer could be liable for producing a faulty product.
  • Local Authorities – Local or state government bodies could be liable if poor road conditions, inadequate signage, or other roadway issues contributed to the accident.

What If I Am Partially at Fault for My Accident?

Texas has a “modified comparative fault” system, which means you can still recover compensation from another party even if you’re partly to blame for an accident, so long as your fault is no more than 50% However, if you are partially at fault, the amount of compensation available to you will decrease based on your percentage of fault.

Components of a Vehicular Accident Case

We must prove that the other party caused your injury to have a successful personal injury claim. First, we must show that the other party owed you a duty of care and breached it. Texas defines duty of care as “A person in control of a property using reasonable care to keep the premises in a reasonably safe condition for the protection of all persons whose presence is reasonably foreseeable.” This includes stopping at red lights. If a driver runs a red light, he or she has breached the duty of care. That breach put you and other motorists at risk.

Finally, we must prove that by breaching the duty of care, the other party caused your injuries. Using the previous example, we can prove causation if a driver runs a red light, hits your car, and breaks your leg. By running the red light, the driver caused an accident. The accident resulted in a broken leg. This is a straightforward example, but personal injury cases are generally much more complicated. That’s why hiring the right Vehicle Accident Attorney is vital.

Trucking Accidents Cause More Serious Injuries

Accidents involving trucks can be more severe than car accidents due to their larger size and weight, especially enormous 18-wheeler tractor-trailer trucks. While the most common vehicles are pickup trucks and SUVs, which can do plenty of damage, the larger commercial vehicles often cause the most severe injuries. The root of many of these Tractor Trailer Accidents are:

  • Reckless Operation
  • Driver Fatigue
  • Lack of Truck Maintenance
  • Violating Truck Regulations
  • Overloading Truck

Motorcycle Accidents in Houston

People in passenger vehicles are surrounded by a steel frame, seat belt restraint systems, and airbags, while motorcyclists are exposed to more hazards on the open road. Even when a motorcyclist is driving safely and cautiously, an accident can occur due to no fault of the motorcyclist. Some of the most common types of motorcycle accidents involve the following:

  • Side-swipes
  • T-bone collisions
  • Accidents caused by debris in the road
  • Accidents caused by poor road conditions
  • Left turn collisions
  • Rear-end accidents
  • Single motorcycle accidents
  • Drunk driving accidents
  • Blind spot accidents
  • Failure to yield accidents
  • Excessive speed accidents

Motorcyclists are at greater risk of being involved in an accident than other types of motorists, so working with an injury attorney helps ensure you get the best outcome for your case.

Uber, Lyft, and Rideshare Accidents

Recovering compensation for a ridesharing accident claim can be very complicated. Rideshare drivers are not operating their vehicles solely for their own benefit, therefore, liability is not always straightforward in Uber and Lyft crash cases. It can extend beyond the rideshare driver to include other drivers, the rideshare company, vehicle manufacturers, and even governmental entities responsible for road conditions.

If you want to seek compensation for damages resulting from a rideshare accident, we will need to identify the parties that are liable for your accident. Some parties that can be held liable for rideshare accidents include:

  • The rideshare driver
  • The driver of the other vehicle
  • Pedestrians
  • Cyclists
  • Other motorists
  • Government agencies
  • Car or car part manufacturers
