What the Law Says

Texas Transportation Code Section 545.051 requires drivers to operate on the right half of the roadway, with limited exceptions. Section 545.055 restricts driving on the left side of the road in a no-passing zone. A driver who crosses into oncoming traffic where passing is prohibited may be found to have violated these rules, which can be important evidence in a civil injury claim.

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 71 allows certain surviving family members to bring a wrongful death claim when a person dies because of another’s wrongful act or negligence. Deadlines and eligibility rules apply, so families should get advice early. Our firm works on a no fee unless we win basis.
