Head on collisions typically result from one driver crossing into the opposing lane of traffic, making fault relatively clear in most cases. Physical evidence such as debris patterns, tire marks, and vehicle damage indicate which driver crossed the centerline. When impairment or distraction is involved, toxicology results and phone records provide compelling evidence of negligence that can also support punitive damage claims.
Texas Transportation Code Section 545.051 requires vehicles to be driven on the right half of the roadway, and crossing the center line into oncoming traffic constitutes a clear violation. When a head on collision results from intoxication, Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 41 allows recovery of exemplary damages. The combined impact forces in head on collisions frequently result in wrongful death claims governed by Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Sections 71.001 through 71.012.

At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.
In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.
While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.
Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.
Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
