Speeding occurs when a driver exceeds the posted speed limit, drives too fast for conditions or races.  It is the leading contributor to highway facilities and car wrecks causing personal injury in Texas and across the country.  In fact, it is a factor in approximately one-third of the traffic deaths every year, according to the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA).  In 2010, more than 10,500 people died in speeding crashes in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says.

Speeding is aggressive and reckless driving. If you have suffered injuries or loss of a loved one in a car accident caused by speeding, you may be entitled to compensation for medical and/or living expenses as well as your pain and suffering.

Speeding and Aggressive Truck Driving in Texas

The results of exceeding the speed limit or otherwise driving too fast for conditions are obvious. Speeding leads to car crashes that result in personal injury and death. Still, almost all drivers speed and, to a somewhat lesser extent, engage in aggressive driving on occasion. “Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around curves or objects in the roadway, extends the distance necessary to stop a vehicle and increases the distance a vehicle travels while the driver reacts to a dangerous situation,” the NHTSA says.
Speed was a factor in 31 percent of U.S. highway fatalities in 2010, indicating an increase of 7 percent since 2000, when speeding contributed to 29 percent of the fatal car wrecks, according to the GHSA report.

Speeding and Law Enforcement in Texas

In Texas, the State Patrol says higher speeds result in an “increased chance of a collision due to increased speed variance” between the speeding car and other vehicles, and a “greater risk of a fatality resulting from higher crash impact speeds.”
The Texas reckless driving law says that “a person commits reckless driving if he or she drives any vehicle with a willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property.” Meanwhile, the NHTSA defines aggressive driving as “committing a combination of moving traffic offenses so as to endanger other persons or property.” In the Houston area, city leaders installed red-light cameras to identify speeders in 2011. Despite speeding and reckless driving laws, and the availability of radar and laser devices to enforce the law in Texas, speeding is still a problem.
