Fatal Truck Accidents in Texas

Burleson County, TX – Elizabeth Garcia Loses life in 3-Vehicle Truck Wreck on Highway 36 near Frenstat RdFatal truck accidents take place every day in the state of Texas. In 2021 alone, over 1200 people lost their lives as a result of accidents with big rigs and other commercial vehicles. In many cases, these accidents are caused by negligent motorists.

A fatal truck accident in Texas can be complicated when it comes to proving liability for the resulting damages. Many factors can contribute to these accidents. In some cases, the responsible parties may not be immediately apparent. However, if the crash was caused by a situation where the truck was overloaded or improperly loaded, the cargo company may assume liability for the accident.

If the truck driver was driving recklessly or under the influence of drugs or alcohol, the driver can be held directly liable for their actions. If faulty brakes or other mechanical issues cause the accident, the truck's manufacturer or maintenance company may be held liable. Multiple parties may sometimes be found at fault for a fatal accident.
