What is a Speeding Accident?
In Houston, Texas, speed limits vary by roadway type and location, as set by the Texas Transportation Code. The general speed limits include 30 mph in urban districts, 15 mph in alleys, and 70 mph on rural highways for state or U.S. numbered highways. In school zones, speed limits are reduced during certain hours when children are present. It’s important to obey posted speed limit signs, as they override general limits
The Texas Transportation Commission can set limits up to 75 mph after an engineering investigation. For accidents, you have two years to file a lawsuit, but multi-vehicle cases require swift action to gather evidence, interview witnesses, and negotiate insurance.
What to do After a Multi Vehicle Accident in Houston?
Reduced Reaction Time
When drivers speed, especially during rush hour on Houston's congested highways like the 610 Loop or while merging onto the South Freeway (SH 288), they have significantly less time to react to sudden traffic changes or road hazards.
Greater Impact Force
Higher speeds mean more devastating crashes. The force of impact increases dramatically with speed, leading to more severe injuries and a higher risk of fatalities, particularly in multi-vehicle collisions near busy areas like the Medical Center exits.
Loss of Vehicle Control
Speeding makes it harder to maintain control, especially during Houston's unpredictable weather conditions or while navigating tricky merges near MacGregor Way where down town commuters mix with medical staff changes
Extended Stopping Distance
Fast-moving vehicles need more distance to stop safely. This becomes particularly dangerous in construction zones, during sudden traffic stops on the Sam Houston Tollway, or when encountering flooding on low-lying sections of our highways.
Common Injuries in Speeding-Related Accidents
Speeding is one of the leading causes of serious and fatal accidents in Houston. When drivers exceed posted speed limits or drive too fast for road or weather conditions, they put everyone around them at risk. Our experienced speeding accident attorneys have seen firsthand how devastating high-speed collisions can be, often resulting in:
- Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

Proving Fault in Speeding Accident Cases
Our Houston car accident lawyers know how to prove the other driver was speeding through:
Police Reports and Citations
Official police documentation provides radar measurements, traffic violations, and officer assessments of speed-related factors, including road conditions at the time of the accident.
Accident Reconstruction Analysis
Using advanced simulations and calculations, our experts analyze crash sequences and impact forces to recreate the accident, supported by expert testimony.
Witness Statements
We gather first hand accounts from witnesses about speeding behaviour, along with video recordings and statements from other drivers involved in the incident.
Traffic Camera Footage
Video evidence from traffic cameras provides time-stamped proof of vehicle movements and speeding violations from multiple angles.
Black Box Data
Vehicle black boxes record critical data like speed, braking, and acceleration at impact, creating an accurate timeline of events.
Skid Mark Analysis
Physical evidence from skid marks helps calculate speeds and determine exact impact points, providing concrete proof of speeding violations.
Statute of Limitation Speeding Accident Claims
In Texas, you have two years from the date of your speeding accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This legal deadline, known as the statute of limitations, is strict – missing it can prevent you from seeking compensation entirely. However, it’s crucial to contact our Houston speeding accident lawyers much sooner. Early action allows us to:
- Preserve critical evidence before it disappears
- Interview witnesses while memories are fresh
- Document road conditions and skid marks
- Obtain traffic camera footage before it's deleted
- Begin insurance negotiations promptly
- Meet insurance claim deadlines, which are often shorter
