Types of Car Crashes Our Midland Car Accident Lawyers Can Handle

Over the decades, our seasoned car crash attorneys in Midland, TX have successfully represented clients in all types of car accidents, including:

• Rear-End Collisions: One of the most common types of car accidents, rear-end crashes typically result from tailgating, distracted driving, or sudden braking. These accidents may cause whiplash, back injuries, and spinal cord damage.
• Head-On Collisions: These are among the deadliest car accidents, generally caused by wrong-way driving, distracted driving, or drowsy driving. Head-on crashes may result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities.
• T-Bone Accidents (Side-Impact Collisions): Also known as broadside collisions, these accidents occur when a car crashes into the side of another vehicle, often at intersections due to failure to yield or running a red light.
• Sideswipe Accidents: Sideswipe crashes happen when two cars driving in the same direction make contact, often due to unsafe lane changes, distracted driving, or failure to check blind spots.
• Multi-Vehicle Pileups: These chain-reaction crashes involve multiple vehicles and can be extremely complex. They generally occur on highways due to low visibility, speeding, or sudden stops.
• Rollover Accidents: SUVs and taller vehicles are more prone to rollovers, which often result from sharp turns at high speeds, tire blowouts, or collisions with other vehicles.
• Intersection Collisions: Dangerous intersections in Midland are common sites for crashes caused by drivers running red lights, failing to yield, or making illegal turns.
• Distracted Driving Accidents: Texting while driving, talking on the phone, eating, or using in-car entertainment systems increase the risk of a car accident. These crashes may result in severe injuries.
• Drunk Driving Accidents: Despite strict Texas DUI laws, many car drivers still get behind the wheel intoxicated, causing crashes with devastating consequences for the victims.
• Drowsy Driving Accidents: Fatigued drivers can be as dangerous as drunk drivers. These accidents often happen late at night or early morning and can lead to head-on or rear-end collisions.
• Speeding-Related Accidents: Speeding reduces reaction time and increases crash severity. Speed-related crashes may result in fatal injuries, especially on highways due to the high-speed impact.
• Failure to Yield Accidents: These crashes occur when drivers fail to yield at stop signs, intersections, or when merging, leading to T-bone or side-impact collisions.
• Road Rage & Aggressive Driving Accidents: Tailgating, cutting off other drivers, excessive speeding, and brake-checking contribute to aggressive driving crashes.
• Uninsured & Underinsured Motorist Accidents: If you are hit by a driver with no insurance or insufficient coverage, our attorneys will help you pursue compensation through UM/UIM coverage or a lawsuit.
• Highway & Freeway Accidents: High-speed crashes on I-20, Loop 250, and Highway 349 can be particularly severe, often involving multiple vehicles.
• Reckless Driving Accidents: Reckless driving behaviors like weaving in and out of lanes, ignoring traffic signals, and excessive speeding frequently cause serious crashes.
• Left-Turn Accidents: Car drivers making unsafe left turns at intersections or failing to judge oncoming traffic correctly are one of the leading causes of car crashes in Plano, TX.
• Weather-Related Accidents: Midland's dust storms, heavy rain, and fog reduce visibility and road traction, increasing the likelihood of car crashes when drivers fail to adjust their speed in these conditions.
• Vehicle Defect & Mechanical Failure Accidents: Sometimes, car crashes happen due to faulty brakes, tire blowouts, or steering malfunctions. We investigate these cases for potential product liability claims.
• Hit-and-Run Accidents: Some drivers flee the scene after an accident, leaving victims injured and struggling for compensation. Our attorneys track down liable parties and fight for your rights.
