Conroe Crash Kills Entire Texas Family
There can be no words to adequately express the sadness and grief felt by those who knew and loved a family recently killed in a tragic accident. It is hard enough to cope with the loss of a loved one, but when an entire family is lost, the grieving process can seem unbearable. A recent fatal auto accident in Texas has led to the death of a husband, wife and their two children.
The crash took place on a recent Saturday morning on Texas 105 near the city of Conroe. The family was killed when another vehicle entered their path of travel and a collision was unavoidable. The driver of the other vehicle was a 40-year-old man. Police are not sure what led him to lose control of his pickup truck and veer into the lanes of opposing traffic.
The force of the collision left the engine of the family’s Volkswagen outside of the vehicle and sitting in the road, where it was struck by other drivers attempting to avoid the debris field. Police are investigating the deadly accident, and have noted that there were no skid marks present at the site, indicating that the vehicles collided at full speed. Full toxicology screening results are still pending, but police do not believe that alcohol or cell phone use were factors in the crash.
A Texas Fatal Car Accident Lawyer can Help Win Financial Compensation
As the investigation progresses, Texas police will try to determine if the other driver was at fault in this fatal auto accident. If that appears to be the case, the family of the deceased could decide to move forward with a wrongful death suit against the driver. Legal action is likely the furthest thing from their minds as they try to process this unexpected tragedy, but the results of a successful civil suit could help them recover damages associated with this terrible loss.
