Truck Accidents in Texas

Truck accidents are one of the most severe types of crashes that anyone can be involved in. Regrettably, thousands of people in our state are negatively affected by these collisions in our state each year. There are several acts of negligence that continue to lead to truck accidents taking place in our state. Some of the leading factors include:

• Distracted driving: Truck drivers often spend significant time on the road. As a result, they are more likely to become distracted while behind the wheel. Unfortunately, many truck accidents take place as a result of drivers who are using their phones or messing with their radios.
• Fatigue: When truck drivers are forced to spend a significant time on the road, they may become fatigued while behind the wheel.
• Improper maintenance: If a truck is not properly maintained, it can break down or have other issues that can cause an accident.
• Intoxication: Unfortunately, some truck drivers choose to drive while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. This greatly increases the risk of an accident occurring.
• Weather conditions: Bad weather can make it difficult for truck drivers to see and navigate the road, increasing the chance of an accident happening.
