Semi-Truck Accidents in Texas

Because there are more than 15 million heavy trucks in the United States, it is extremely possible that you may notice trucks whenever you go on the highways. Without these massive transportation vehicles, the American transportation industry would not be able to function as it does. A total of  4,014 fatal semi-truck accidents occurred in 2020, and there were 28% more fatalities involving semi-trucks that year than there were in 2009. 

The Texas Department of Transportation reports that deadly commercial vehicle collisions occur almost daily in Texas. 18-wheelers are involved in some of the most horrific automobile incidents. Due to their size, semi-trucks and 18-wheelers frequently cause fatalities, severe injuries, and enormous amounts of property damage. To protect other drivers, drivers and the businesses that employ them must obey the law. When completely loaded, a big rig may weigh up to 80,000 pounds and have the potential to cause substantially more severe physical injuries in the event of an accident. You can manage the claims procedure with the aid of a truck accident attorney and obtain the financial support you require to continue on with your life.
