Car Accidents in Texas
Almost 200,000 car accidents are caused by drivers who run red lights in Texas. Most of the time drivers run red lights because they’re in a rush and don’t feel like yielding the right-of-way to other drivers. Other times drivers do this when they’re under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Drivers also run red lights when they’re speeding, which puts themselves and everyone at risk.
