Potential Compensation in Texas Reckless Driving Accidents
If you’ve been injured in a reckless driving accident in Texas, you may be entitled to substantial compensation for the losses you’ve suffered. Texas law allows victims to pursue both economic and non-economic damages, and in some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded to punish the reckless driver for extreme negligence.
Medical Expenses
Covers current and future medical bills, including emergency care, surgeries, physical therapy, medications, and rehabilitation.
Lost Wages & Loss of Earning Capacity
If your injuries prevent you from working, you can seek compensation for lost income and diminished future earning potential.
Pain and Suffering
Compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life due to the accident.
Property Damage
Reimbursement for vehicle repair or replacement, as well as any other damaged property.
Punitive Damages
In cases of extreme recklessness—such as street racing, road rage, or driving under the influence—Texas courts may award punitive damages to penalize the at-fault driver and deter future misconduct.
