A man tragically lost his life on Tuesday morning after being struck by two vehicles in San Antonio. Initially reported, this horrible incident occurred at Culebra Road and North San Horacio Avenue near St. Mary’s University. According to reports, the man was believed to be in his early 20’s. He sadly got hit by a Dodge pickup truck, and after the vehicle struck him, it drove off. A while later, another automobile drove across the man while he was still lying on the street. This vehicle did not stop either. It drove off. Actively responding to the scene, the authorities found the man lying in the middle of the street when they arrived. The man lost his life due to the tremendous injuries he suffered.

Unfortunately, distracted driving is a massive issue in San Antonio. Those who choose to drive inattentively plague our streets and, through their sheer carelessness, cause a great deal of unnecessary pain and suffering. Fleeing after an accident and refusing to take responsibility for the actions one causes is an unfortunate reality.

In recent years, many hit-and-run drivers have been distracted just before their tragic accidents, according to collected testimonies. Eating, texting on their phones, and talking to their friends are all things these drivers may be doing right before facing the utter shock of an auto accident. But unfortunately, these drivers often panic and drive off, not facing what they have just done.

Because Texas is such a large state, some areas receive more wintry conditions than others during the winter months. As a result, many drivers do not know how to drive on icy or slippery roads, which can result in devastating Texas car accidents. To stay safe this winter season, it is crucial that you drive with care if you must travel, and to limit travel as much as possible when temperatures are particularly low and the weather is icy.

According to a local news report, six people were killed in a major car accident that involved more than 100 vehicles after a rush of winter weather that swept across Texas. Following the accident, multiple people were trapped in their vehicles, and more than 36 people were taken to local hospitals for further treatment and several were in critical condition at the scene. Videos and photos from other news outlets showed a massive crash involving multiple cars, eighteen-wheeler trucks, tractor-trailers, and local firefighters responding to the scene. Vehicles were piled on top of each other, rolled on their sides, or spun out along the sides of the road. Due to significant amounts of winter weather rolling across the state, local authorities are asking drivers to proceed with caution, especially since the roads are especially slick and icy.

According to the Texas Department of Transportation (DOT), several easy driving tips can ensure a safer, smoother, less stressful trip when traveling in unpredictable winter weather.
