18-Wheeler Accidents in Texas

Anyone on the road can be in danger when sharing the road with a large tractor-trailer. Passenger vehicles are involved in about 98 percent of the 500,000 semi-truck collisions that occur annually across the United States. Semi-truck collisions injure over 130,000 people in the United States, and these accidents are known to cause devastating injuries. Texas has put regulations in place to ensure the safety of its highways, and there are specific criteria for trucking companies due to the size of massive commercial trucks. Truck drivers must complete specialized safety training and adhere to strict traffic restrictions when operating a semi-truck. Unfortunately, corporations and truckers both utilize shortcuts to boost profits, even at the risk of threatening other drivers' lives. Truck drivers are required to fulfill strict deadlines during their authorized working hours, and these truckers occasionally drive a large rig without proper rest. Tractor-trailer accidents can occur when a truck driver disobeys the traffic laws that other drivers are required to abide by or when the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations are disregarded.
