Denton County, TX — October 27, 2025, Tara Hammons and one other were injured following a car accident at around 9:18 p.m. along Farm-to-Market 720.
Authorities said that the accident took place in the area of University Drive.
It appears that 36-year-old Tara Hammons was in a Chevy Silverado going westbound along US 380/University. An eastbound Toyota Camry reportedly attempted to make a left turn at the FM 720 intersection. That vehicle allegedly failed to yield, resulting in a collision with the Chevy.
Authorities say Tara Hammons had serious injuries while a passenger in the Toyota had non-critical injuries. Additional details are unavailable at this time.
Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
People generally think that car accidents are always open-and-shut due to how common they are. Authorities do their investigations, and that’s that. What I always tell folks, though, is it can be important to ask some key questions early on. Authorities aren’t always being as thorough as people may think.
- Did the officers have enough time and equipment to dig into the details thoroughly?
- Were the vehicles involved inspected for defects, either that led to the crash or resulted in serious injuries?
- Has all electronic evidence been secured (cellphones, GPS, cameras, vehicle data, etc.)?
In my experience, if authorities can provide clear answers to these questions, it’s a good sign their investigations were thorough. But if their answers come up short, that can be a sign that the crash needs a second look from more experienced independent investigators.
