The role of negligence in intersection accidents
Every Texas driver knows – or ought to know – the rules of the road that apply at intersections. You need to stop when the light turns yellow if it is safe to do so, yield to oncoming traffic when making a left turn, come to a complete stop before turning right on red, and so on. Those rules exist for a reason. When they’re broken, the risk of a car accident increases.
Many wrecks at intersections are T-bone or broadside accidents. Such crashes can be very dangerous because the side of a vehicle provides very little protection from the front end of another car. Rear-end accidents while stopped at a red light are also common – and serious multi-vehicle crashes can occur if the force of impact pushes a car into the path of cross traffic.
Finding out what happened in an intersection accident can be difficult. Crashes happen fast, and witnesses may disagree about what they saw. We know how to launch our own investigation and sort out the confusion. We’ll cross-reference statements and use physical evidence to get to the bottom of what happened. We’ll also intervene quickly to preserve any camera footage, if available, to bolster your case. We’ll take a hard line when dealing with the insurance company, both in negotiations and, if necessary, in court.
