Each year in the state of Texas, more than 7,000 people are hospitalized as a result of being struck by cars, trucks, SUVs, and other motor vehicles. Children and elderly individuals involved in accidents are more likely to sustain serious and life-threatening injuries. Their fragile stature leaves them vulnerable to traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, and various other injuries that demand extensive medical treatment.
