Truck Accidents in Texas

Truck accidents take the lives of thousands of people in the United States each year. Unfortunately, we see countless people harmed or killed as a result of these accidents right here in the state of Texas. Day after day, we continue to see innocent people suffer debilitating injuries and truck accidents due to negligence.

Some of the most common causes of truck accidents that we see here in our state include:

  • Drunk drivers.
  • Distracted drivers.
  • Drivers who fail to yield.
  • Drivers who recklessly switch lanes.
  • Drivers who run red lights.

Unfortunately, these and other acts of negligence often lead to crashes that cause severe injuries for those involved. Spinal cord injuries can be extremely debilitating and may require lifelong care. Traumatic brain injuries can also be very serious and can lead to long-term cognitive impairment. Broken bones can be extremely painful, and may take a long time to heal properly.
