Bexar County, TX — August 28, 2025, Tabitha Dunn was injured due to a car accident shortly before 5:45 p.m. along Stone Oak Parkway.

According to authorities, 26-year-old Tabitha Dunn was traveling in a southbound Ford Fiesta on Stone Oak Parkway at the Stonehue intersection when the accident took place.

Officials indicate that, for as yet unknown reasons, an eastbound Hyundai Elantra attempted to enter the roadway from a private drive at an apparently unsafe time, failing to yield the right-of-way to roadway traffic. A collision consequently occurred between the left side of the Elantra and the front-end of the Fiesta.

Dunn reportedly sustained serious injuries over the course of the accident. It does not appear that any one from the Elantra was hurt. Additional details pertaining to this incident are not available at this point in time. The investigation is currently ongoing.

Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman

When one vehicle enters from a private drive and collides with traffic already on the roadway, the story is often told in quick terms—“failure to yield.” But these kinds of cases benefit from deeper review, because the real answers depend on how well the scene was investigated, whether either vehicle malfunctioned, and whether critical data was preserved.

1. Did the authorities thoroughly investigate the crash?

Collisions like this hinge on timing and movement. Did investigators reconstruct the Elantra’s entry into the roadway and the Fiesta’s approach speed? Were skid marks, impact points, and resting positions documented? Without careful mapping, the assumption of a failure to yield may oversimplify what happened. A thorough investigation is needed to show whether this was purely driver judgment or if another factor contributed.

2. Has anyone looked into the possibility that a vehicle defect caused the crash?

A sudden brake failure, steering issue, or even throttle malfunction in the Hyundai Elantra could have caused the vehicle to pull into traffic at the wrong moment. On the other side, if the Fiesta’s brakes or stability systems failed to respond properly, that could have made the impact unavoidable. Unless both vehicles were inspected for defects beyond crash damage, these questions may remain unanswered.

3. Has all the electronic data relating to the crash been collected?

Both vehicles likely contain event data recorders capable of logging speed, braking, and throttle position just before impact. That information could clarify whether the Elantra’s driver attempted to stop or whether the Fiesta tried to avoid the collision. Phones may also shed light on whether distraction was involved. And since this occurred at a busy intersection, traffic cameras or nearby security systems may have captured footage. Securing that evidence quickly is crucial before it disappears.

Crashes like this can appear straightforward, but important details are often lost when the focus stays only on the immediate cause. A full accounting depends on scene reconstruction, mechanical review, and digital evidence.

Takeaways:

• Intersection crashes require reconstruction to understand timing and movement.
• Vehicle defects in either car could have contributed and need to be ruled out.
• Event recorders, phones, and local cameras may provide the clearest account of the crash.
