Truck Accidents

Truck and Commercial Vehicle Accidents Are Far Too Common

According to the Texas Department of Transportation, in 2018, there were over 37,000 truck and commercial vehicle wrecks in Texas alone. Many of these were fatal or caused serious injuries. While trucks may be necessary for transporting consumer goods, the number of serious truck accidents that occur is unacceptable.

Types of Truck Accidents

Override and underride crashes

An override accident occurs when a large truck drives over the top of a smaller vehicle; an underride accident occurs when a smaller vehicle driver under the trailer of a truck. These accidents are often caused by tailgating or by cutting off a larger vehicle.

Jackknife crashes

A jackknife collision happens when the truck’s trailer swings around to create a 90-degree angle with the truck cab.

Drunk driving crashes

Truck accidents are often caused by drunk or impaired drivers, including substance-impaired truck drivers.

Blind spot accidents

Large trucks have large blind spots, and truck drivers often change lanes or perform other maneuvers as a result of failing to see smaller vehicles within blind spots.

Distracted driving

Common distractions include texting, talking on the phone, personal grooming, and eating, among a number of others.

Aggressive driving

Aggressive behavior may include unsafe lane changes, tailgating, or failing to signal or yield the right of way.

Fatigued driving

Fatigued driving is often considered as dangerous as driving while intoxicated.

Expressway/highway crashes

High rates of speed on expressways or highways may lead to catastrophic crashes.

McAllen Truck Accident Attorney

Being involved in a truck accident or learning that a loved one has been involved in a truck crash can be shocking. Attorney Julian C. Gomez is who you should see if you or a loved one has been in a commercial vehicle accident. Our firm is dedicated to helping our clients use the law to improve their lives after accidents.

Compensation Available Following a McAllen 18-Wheeler Wreck

The goal of a lawsuit is to deter harmful conduct and compensate the injured.. Compensation in a commercial vehicle wreck can include:

  • Medical expenses;
  • Lost wages;
  • Property damage expenses;
  • Pain and suffering;
  • Loss of enjoyment and life; and
  • Damages associated with the loss of a loved one, including loss of companionship, funeral and burial expenses, and more.

Proving Negligence

We know how to prove fault–otherwise known as negligence–after a truck crash. We’ll work hard to gather evidence that shows that the trucking company, truck driver, or another involved party breached the duty of care owed to you.

Was a Vehicle Defect to Blame?

In addition to investigating the actions of the truck driver, trucking company, and others on the road, we will also consider whether a vehicle defect was to blame for your crash. If it was, we can help you in bringing a claim for compensation against the appropriate manufacturer.
