Fort Worth Car Accident Attorney

Types of Car Accidents in Fort Worth

A crash can happen virtually anywhere at any time. Even when you take the necessary precautions, you cannot predict or prevent another driver's behavior. The result is a car accident that does far more than disrupt your daily commute. You may be left with lasting injuries that affect your ability to work or do the things you once loved.

Here are some of the car accident types our attorneys handle in Fort Worth:

• Rear-end collisions happen when a vehicle strikes the one in front of it, often due to distracted driving, tailgating, or sudden braking.
• Head-on collisions occur when two vehicles traveling in opposite directions collide front-first. These are among the most severe types of crashes due to the combined force of impact.
• T-bone (side-impact) collisions typically happen at intersections when one vehicle's front strikes another vehicle's side.
• Sideswipe accidents occur when two vehicles traveling in the same direction make contact, often during an unsafe lane change.
• Rollover accidents happen when a vehicle flips onto its side or roof, frequently caused by sharp turns at high speed, a collision, or striking an obstacle, and are more common in SUVs and trucks due to their higher center of gravity.
• Multi-vehicle pileups involve three or more vehicles and often raise complex questions about which driver (or drivers) bear responsibility.
• Distracted driving accidents happen when a driver's attention is diverted from the road, commonly due to phone use, eating, or other in-vehicle distractions.
• Drunk driving accidents occur when alcohol impairs a driver's judgment, coordination, and reaction time.
• Uninsured and underinsured motorist accidents happen when the at-fault driver has no insurance, or not enough coverage, to pay for the harm they caused. Texas drivers can often turn to their own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage in these situations.
• Rideshare accidents involving Uber or Lyft raise unique insurance questions, since coverage can depend on whether the driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, or actively transporting a passenger at the time of the crash.
• Taxis and limousines are generally classified as common carriers, which means these companies are held to a higher legal standard of care for their passengers' safety than an ordinary driver.
• Highway accidents are common in high-traffic areas around Fort Worth and near major transportation hubs like DFW Airport, where high speeds, heavy traffic volume, and drivers unfamiliar with the area all contribute to risk.
