Texas Semi-Truck Accidents
A large commercial truck can cause complete devastation in the event of a crash involving a smaller passenger vehicle. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s most recent statistics, nationwide semi-truck crashes resulted in 4,965 fatalities and 146,930 injuries in 2020. The Texas Department of Transportation reported 580 fatalities in the same year, which indicates that Texas was the site of approximately 12% of all fatal commercial truck accidents nationwide.
Accidents involving trucks can result in severe injuries that call for continuing medical care or physical therapy. The value of your case will increase with the severity of your injuries. Every truck accident case has a unique set of victims and circumstances. In the majority of Texas car accidents, the negligent party is in charge of paying for the medical treatment and other damages. Many truckers work for a trucking company, which makes the business vicariously liable for any injuries its employees cause.
