The video shows a vehicle starting to fishtail before it knocks over several cones. People are heard screaming in the background. The video then cuts out. Another video from the immediate aftermath of the accident shows a white truck stopped under a tent designated for spectators. The video shows one person lying on the ground. Several other vehicles can be seen in the immediate vicinity.<\/p>\n<p>One man was killed in the accident, and seven others were seriously hurt. Authorities are still investigating the accident, as it was initially unclear what caused the vehicles to leave the track and why there was not a more substantial barrier between the track and spectators. It remains unclear if this was an officially sanctioned event or just a group of people who arranged a recreational race.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carabinshaw.com\/news\/texas-racetrack-accident-claims-one-mans-life-and-injures-bystanders\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Texas Racetrack Accident Claims One Man\u2019s Life and Injures Bystanders\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this month, an accident in Fabens, TX, near the border with Mexico, claimed one man\u2019s life and seriously injured several others.
