Causes of Car Accidents

In 2011, the city of Austin saw a total of 11,852 traffic accidents, 3,347 of which involved serious injuries and 49 of which involved 1 or more fatalities. Anyone who has been injured in such an accident because of someone else’s negligence can file a car accident claim to recover damages.

At Melendez Law Firm, a personal injury attorney can investigate your accident to gather evidence and establish negligence. By proving that another person was responsible for causing your accident, we can maximize your compensation.

Some of the most common causes of car accidents in today’s society include various forms of distracted driving, such as engaging in the following activities instead of paying attention to the road:

  • Texting
  • Talking on the phone
  • Eating
  • Putting on makeup
  • Adjusting the stereo or GPS
