Azle Teenager Killed In Fatal Auto Accident

I am always deeply saddened to hear of a fatal traffic accident. Unfortunately, as a Dallas-Fort Worth personal injury and wrongful death lawyer, I know that such tragedies occur throughout the North Texas region on an all too regular basis. This morning, I learned of a terrible wreck in Azle which claimed the life of Steven Wright, 18. Steven was a passenger in a car driven by his older brother, which was hit by an oncoming truck on Farm Road 730 North on Thursday afternoon.

I would like to offer my deepest condolences to Steven's family and friends. My thoughts are with you.

Both Steven's brother and the truck driver were transported to be hospital to be treated for unknown injuries. I wish both individuals a full and speedy recovery.

Auto collisions are a leading cause of deaths in Texas. The National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA) estimates there are more than 3,000 crash-related fatalities in the state each year. Children (categorized as aged 19 or younger) are particularly at risk from suffering serious injuries or being killed if they are involved in a vehicle wreck. Nationwide, it is estimated that 150 children an hour are treated by hospital's emergency departments for such injuries.

It should also not be noted that this particular accident also involved a truck. As an experienced 18 wheeler injury attorney, I know that semis and other commercial trucks are involved in no less than 12% of all traffic fatalities in the US.
