Have you ever witnessed the aftermath of a horrific head-on vehicle collision or saw footage of one on the news?
Sadly, most head-on vehicle accidents are avoidable. In the majority of cases, drunk driving, distracted driving and/or driver inattention cause them. If you are ever involved in a head-on crash, you should speak to our attorneys.
Additionally, if you have lost a loved one to a head-on accident, we can assist you in a wrongful death lawsuit if negligence contributed to the crash. Sadly, a study recently found that drivers had blood alcohol content (BAC) of more than twice the legal limit in 59 percent of head-on collisions.
Unfortunately, several Texas A&M students were injured in a head-on crash in Cleveland, Texas on November 30. The crash reportedly occurred around 8:30 p.m., in Montgomery County on State Highway 105, just east of Goode City Road.
According to KTRK-TV, the driver of a pickup truck was going eastbound when he crossed into oncoming traffic. The vehicle allegedly struck a Hyundai Sonata carrying the students. Two students reportedly had to be taken Life Flight to Memorial Hermann Hospital. Three other passengers had to be transported to local hospitals for treatment.
The driver of the truck was not seriously injured.
