Fatal Bicycle Accidents in Texas

Hundreds of people lose their lives in pedestrian accidents across the state of Texas each year. In many instances, victims are using bicycles at the time of their crashes. We see countless bicyclists lose their lives in crashes due to the negligence of drivers. Some of the leading causes of bicycle accidents include drivers who are speeding, failing to yield the right of way, and driving while impaired.

When bicyclists live their lives in accidents, they often leave behind families who are left to endure tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses, funeral arrangements, expenses, and more. In many instances, families lose a source of income that they have grown to depend on.
