Truck Accidents in Texas

A truck accident can have a devastating impact on your family. This is especially true if you have suffered serious injuries. Unfortunately, thousands of people in Texas are severely hurt as a result of auto accidents that take place in our state. Accidents involving trucks are more likely to result in severe injuries for those involved.

These massive vehicles have the power to cause damage to anything they come in contact with. Unfortunately, victims of truck accidents often suffer serious injuries like:

• Traumatic brain injuries.
• Severe spinal cord injuries.
• Internal organ injuries.
• Severe compound fractures.
• Severe cuts and lacerations.
• Burn injuries that result in permanent scarring.
• Permanent disfigurements.
• Posttraumatic stress disorder.

After a truck accident, you may be able to take legal action against the person responsible. Unlike other Texas collisions, there are several parties who can assume liability following an accident.

The truck driver is responsible for the accident if he or she was negligent in operating the truck. The truck company may be held liable if the driver was working for the company at the time of the accident and the company was aware of the driver’s negligence. The cargo company may be held liable if the accident was caused by defective cargo.
