18-Wheeler Crashes in Texas

Compared to a vehicle or pickup truck, large commercial trucks might easily weigh 20 to 30 times more. In a collision at highway speeds, the passenger automobile was completely destroyed due to its size and greater ground clearance requirements. Texas has the most fatal truck accidents in the country. Almost 13% of all fatal trucking accidents in the US occur in Texas. The most recent data from 2020 shows that there were 513 fatal crashes involving commercial vehicles. A total of  581 individuals died in trucking accidents that year. 32,562 commercial vehicle crashes occurred in Texas. 

Truck accidents can cause serious injuries that necessitate ongoing medical attention or physical treatment. The severity of your injuries will influence how much your case is worth. Each case involving a truck accident involves a different combination of victims and circumstances. The negligent party is responsible for covering the cost of any necessary medical care as well as any damages in the majority of car accidents in Texas. Many truckers work for a trucking company, which renders the corporation vicariously liable for any injuries brought on by its employees.

You may be dealing with lasting injuries if you were hurt in a minor crash or a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer. Regrettably, passengers aboard smaller vehicles typically sustain more serious wounds. Your car accident may have been caused by a number of people, depending on the circumstances.
