New Braunfels, TX (April 11, 2024) - A teen driver died following a crash involving a box truck in the New Braunfels area on Tuesday, April 9. The crash occurred early that morning, around 8:30 a.m., at the intersection of Farm to Market Road 3009 and 1683. Emergency responders were rushed to the scene to render the necessary aid to the involved parties.
Local reports revealed that a 2010 Toyota Sienna minivan and a 2023 Isuzu box truck collided at the scene. The box truck driver was traveling north in the southbound lanes at the time of the incident. The two vehicles collided head-on. The driver of the Toyota, identified as a 16-year-old male, suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene by attending medical personnel. The driver of the box truck was also injured and transported to a local hospital in serious condition. The identity of the deceased party has been withheld. No further information on the deadly accident is currently available. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is in the hands of local law enforcement officials.
We would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their family at this time.
Large trucks can easily cause catastrophic injuries in a collision, particularly when passenger vehicles are involved. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Fatality Analysis Reporting System reports that 643 truck-related fatalities occurred in Texas in 2020, and 180 of these deaths involved occupants of passenger cars. Most of these fatal collisions took place on highways at speeds higher than 65 miles per hour. Every year, millions of semi-trucks travel billions of miles across the state of Texas on its roadways, and you do not have to drive long to share the road with a large commercial truck in the state. In order to strengthen your case if you or a loved one is injured in a catastrophic truck accident, you should always work with an experienced lawyer.
If you or a loved one sustains serious injuries in a truck accident, you need to be ready to protect yourself. You should first speak with a qualified attorney to better understand your legal rights.
