Semi-truck Accidents in Texas

For many years, Texas has faced a significant risk from truck accidents. In terms of fatal semi-truck crashes, the state frequently leads the country, and there were 511 deadly commercial truck accidents on the state's roadways in a recent year, which added up to 580 fatalities overall, and a total of 32,585 reported trucking accidents. The number of deadly trucking accidents has increased noticeably in recent years, with some indicating a 5 to 7 percent increase. Roughly 60 percent of these fatalities are thought to happen on rural roads. The state has 50,000 miles of farm-to-market roads and more than 128,000 miles of state highways, both of which frequently see heavy truck traffic.

Getting back to your regular life after a serious accident can be challenging. In the case of a catastrophic collision with a large 18-wheeler, people in smaller personal automobiles will nearly always suffer far more serious injuries. Your entire life is on the line, and if you are unable to pursue a successful claim, it can impact your future. That is why working with an experienced attorney who has a track record of winning truck accident claims is even more important. These claims are not like ordinary injury cases, and you will need the assistance of an experienced attorney to obtain the outcomes required for a full recovery.
