Texas Semi-Truck Accidents

Large commercial rigs pose a significant danger to those traveling in other vehicles on Texas roadways. The normal semi-truck can carry between 10,000 and 25,000 pounds even without a trailer. When fully laden, they can weigh up to 80,000 pounds. No other accident causes as much damage as a semi-truck accident because it is heavy. They can result in fatalities, permanent injuries, and wrongful deaths, and they regularly do.

In Texas and surrounding areas, driving anywhere without encountering trucks or other commercial vehicles is hard. These cars are unquestionably helpful but pose a serious risk to everyone on the road's safety and well-being.

When careless driving is paired with the enormous size of these vehicles, deadly crashes are bound to happen. Anyone hurt in a crash with a commercial vehicle could suffer serious injuries.
