Dallas County Leads the State of Texas in Deadly Truck and 18 Wheeler Accidents

There were more than 24,500 truck and 18-wheeler accident in Texas in 2022. Of those crashes, Dallas County and Harris County led the state in fatal truck crashes, with 29 each.

The most common causes of Truck and 18 Wheeler Accidents include:

Driver fatigue

Distracted Driving

Speeding and reckless driving

Overweight or improperly loaded cargo

Unqualified and poorly trained truck drivers

Improper maintenance and equipment failures

Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol

Because of their size and weight, truck accidents are much more likely to result in serious injuries and, as a result, involve much larger verdicts and settlements than ordinary motor vehicle crashes.

With millions at risk, trucking companies and their teams of lawyers will do just about anything to avoid paying injured victims and their families, including hiding and destroying evidence, blaming the victims, and minimizing the severity of any injuries and damages.

From winning the first court-ordered sleep study of a commercial driver in Texas to obtaining access to a trucking company’s proprietary “black box” computer system, our Dallas Truck Accident Lawyers and team of accident reconstruction and fleet safety experts know what to expect, what evidence to look for, and—most importantly—how to force the trucking companies to give it to us.

What Do I Need to Know About Truck Accidents?

The faster you put a Dallas truck accident lawyer to work for you, the stronger your case will likely be.

Obtaining and preserving evidence as soon as possible is critical for putting together a winning case for truck accidents.

Due to the cost, severity, and complexity of commercial vehicle accident cases, you will need qualified help to recover the maximum amount for your losses.

Truck accident cases are usually far more complex than a typical auto accident, involving elements that are specific to this area of law. Truck accident cases require resources and expertise that many personal injury lawyers don’t actually have, despite the fact that some personal injury lawyers will represent truck accident cases knowing they lack sufficient understanding and experience. No matter what truck accident law firm you hire, please don’t make the mistake of hiring a lawyer that is not fit to maximize the compensation you receive. Failing to select a highly qualified lawyer could seriously impact your health and livelihood. You need experienced guidance to be compensated fairly.

An experienced truck accident lawyer can usually add a substantial amount of value to your case. Trucking companies and their insurance companies work very hard to deny or limit compensation paid to accident victims. The right lawyer can protect you from their claims tactics.

You should never speak to an insurance company, the trucking company or anyone except for your lawyer about your truck accident. However, it is ok to speak to and cooperate with police officers.

NOTHING about the claims process is structured to work to your benefit. If an insurance company doesn’t think a jury is going to make them pay for a truck accident, they are inclined to pay as little as possible (in some cases, nothing).

Your injuries should be treated by a qualified medical doctor right away. We can assist you with your medical treatment and get you connected with medical professionals whose testimony will hold up in court, should your case go to trial.

If you don’t have health insurance don’t let this stop you from going to the hospital.

Tate Law Offices has the resources and experience necessary to help you recover your losses. We have fought for many victims of truck accidents and have won numerous high-dollar settlements. Tim Tate is a member of The Association of Plaintiff Interstate Trucking Lawyers of America (APITLA) which is a national association of committed lawyers who have joined together to help eliminate unsafe and illegal interstate trucking practices. Tim Tate and Chris Rehmet are also members of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum where they are included as two of the “Top Trial Lawyers in America®”. Our team of Dallas truck accident lawyers is here to take on your case. If you, a loved one, or friend have been injured in a truck accident, please contact us now by calling or texting 972-499-4813 or by using our chat feature or contact form.

 

For more information, please see the Related Information on Truck Accidents on this page.

To learn more about the steps you should take after a truck accident, please see our What to Do Immediately after an Accident page.

Our Dallas accident lawyers will review your case for free and pay for all of the upfront costs in your claim. We only accept legal fees and reimbursement for these costs if we are successful in obtaining compensation for you. Our goal is simple: We want you to receive the maximum amount of compensation you deserve without worrying about whether you can afford legal help.

Compensation After Your Truck Accident Injuries

Obtaining the compensation you deserve for your truck accident injuries will likely be challenging. Insurance settlements in CMV accident cases are frequently complicated, and insurers work tirelessly to keep payouts low.

One reason many truck accident claims tend to be more complicated is that collisions involving large trucks, semis, and tractor-trailers can cause significantly more severe injuries and property damage. As such, the average large truck accident insurance claim is particularly expensive. This means insurance adjusters will do everything in their power to deny claims and minimize the value of cases.

Another complicating factor in 18-wheeler accident settlements in the presence of multiple parties that may be held responsible for the accident. A truck driver, his or her employer, the company that owned the truck, the company that manufactured any freight being hauled, or the loading company that packed cargo into the truck could all potentially bear some fault. Each of these parties has an interest in denying responsibility, and all of them have their own insurance providers and attorneys working against you to protect their bottom lines.

If you have medical expenses and other bills piling up, you may be eager to accept a truck accident settlement. Insurance companies know that many 18-wheeler accident victims are desperate. They use this to their advantage, presenting lowball offers in the hopes of ending negotiations quickly.

However, this kind of settlement will rarely account for all of your losses and may leave you with few options if you end up facing long-term consequences. Whether you end up accepting an insurance settlement or taking your case to trial, the help of an experienced Dallas tractor trailer accident lawyer can help you pursue rightful compensation for losses such as:

Current and future medical bills related to your injuries

Past and future physical impairment

Costs of rehabilitation, prescriptions, medical equipment, and in-home services

Other treatment-related expenses, such as transportation to appointments

Loss of current income and future earning potential

Pain and suffering from your injuries

Mental anguish, PTSD, and emotional trauma

Loss of enjoyment of life or consortium with loved ones

What Makes Truck Accident Claims More Complicated?

It’s impossible to exaggerate the need for a lawyer after a truck accident. The trucking industry is heavily regulated and includes many stakeholders, so truck accident cases are often complex. Here are some of the more complicated aspects of handling a truck accident claim:

MULTIPLE PARTIES ARE INVOLVED

The trucking company consists of many moving parts. When an accident occurs, more than one party may bear responsibility for the resulting damages. Any number of parties may have contributed to the accident, including the:

The trucking company that hired the driver

Truck driver

Owner of the truck

A company that manufactured any freight being hauled

Loading company that packed cargo into the truck

The truck manufacturer that built the truck

Auto parts manufacturers that built the parts installed in the truck

Dealing with one party is often difficult enough. Dealing with several at the same time can be frustrating and confusing.

AGGRESSIVE DEFENSES WILL BE MOUNTED

Don’t expect any of the insurance companies that cover the parties involved to offer you a quick and fair settlement. All of these parties and their insurance carriers have an interest in denying responsibility to minimize the financial fallout following a truck accident. You can expect the trucking companies to quickly deploy representatives from their insurance company and aggressive attorneys to the scene of the accident and to mount various defenses as to why they shouldn’t have to pay you what’s fair.

COMPLEX REGULATIONS MAY BE INVOLVED

Even if you think you bear some responsibility for the accident, it is important that you do not say this. Commercial trucks are complex machines that are regulated by even more complex rules on the state and federal level. Commercial trucking companies and their drivers must obey these rules, which include everything from how many hours a trucker can drive in a day to what types of materials must be used to secure cargo.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is responsible for establishing the rules that apply to interstate drivers. These regulations are extensive and include topics such as:

Driver qualifications

Truck operations

Vehicle maintenance requirements

Insurance coverage requirements

Inspections

Accident investigations

Vehicle repairs

Weight distribution

Drug and alcohol prohibition

Additionally, Title 7 of the Texas Transportation Code regulates the operation of trucks within the state of Texas.

It will often take an in-depth investigation to determine all the factors that contributed to the accident. An experienced attorney can investigate the accident and compel the production of evidence to determine the factors that contributed to it.

HOW TO PROVE LIABILITY IN A TRUCK ACCIDENT

Proving that the trucking company or other defendant is responsible for the accident is no easy feat. Proving liability in a truck accident case often comes down to two major factors:

INVESTIGATION

An investigation can help reveal the issues that contributed to an accident. However, the trucking company’s own internal investigation is unlikely to result in favorable information for your claim. After all, their insurance company is only interested in minimizing the value of your claim. While some trucking accidents are investigated by state or federal authorities, the purpose of these investigations is usually to determine whether a traffic violation was committed, not to properly compensate you for your losses.
For these reasons, it is important that you have someone on your side who is investigating the accident to protect your rights. Also, evidence may be removed from the scene or lost. An experienced attorney will be able to take the necessary steps to preserve evidence but only if you act quickly.

EVIDENCE

Trucking companies often maintain massive amounts of data that may help explain the factors that contributed to the accident. Your attorney can take steps to obtain this evidence, which may include:

Inspection and maintenance records

Employee personnel information

Complaints or records of violations

Black box data from the truck

Trucker’s logbook

Police accident reports

Internal accident reports

Results of drug and alcohol testing

READ ALL TESTIMONIALS

Additionally, your personal injury lawyer can interview witnesses who observed the moments leading up to the accident. In some cases, they may hire expert witnesses to explain how the accident happened or describe the damages you have suffered.

Physical evidence like skid marks, debris on the roadway, or damage to the vehicles can further illuminate the cause of the accident. You may have photos or videos of the accident that can also help paint a picture of how the accident happened and how severe it was. Your lawyer can also look if there are any nearby traffic cameras or surveillance cameras that may have captured the accident.
An experienced truck accident attorney will know what evidence to look for and how to best use it to your advantage.

Time Limit for Filing an 18-Wheeler Accident Claim

Each state in the U.S. has legal guidelines outlining how long victims have to file specific types of lawsuits. These guidelines are called statutes of limitations. In Texas, the statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits is two years. This means that if you were injured in a Dallas 18-wheeler accident and cannot reach an appropriate settlement, you have two years from the date of your wreck to file a personal injury claim in court. However, in some situations, the time limit can be less than two years so you should consult an attorney immediately to understand the required deadlines.

Two years may sound like a long time at first. But consider how long it will take to recover from your injuries, build a solid case, and go through one or more rounds of insurance settlement negotiations. Also note that you will need to act quickly to ensure that evidence is both available and viable, and that you have access to as many legal options as possible.

A knowledgeable Dallas truck accident lawyer from our firm can begin work on your case immediately. Contact us now to get started with a free case review.

What Are Some Common Causes of Truck Accidents?

Commercial vehicles can weigh up to 80,000 pounds. If they are not driven in a safe manner, they can cause catastrophic consequences. Far too often, the negligence of truck drivers and trucking companies permanently alters the life of innocent victims.

Some of the most common causes of truck accidents in Texas include:

Negligent hiring or supervision

Inadequate training

Speeding

Distractions

Driver fatigue or exhaustion

Poor maintenance or inadequate inspections

Following too closely

Not making turns correctly or safely

Drug or alcohol impairment

Not following traffic regulations

Improperly loaded cargo

Who Is Liable for Truck Accidents?

Any number of parties whose negligence contributed to a collision involving a commercial vehicle may be legally responsible for the accident. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your case, one or more of the following parties may be responsible for your accident:

In our experience, there are many reasons collisions can occur between large commercial trucks and passenger vehicles in Dallas. Some of the most common causes of truck accidents include:

Truckers who engage in distracted, reckless, or intoxicated driving

Truckers who violate traffic laws or commercial safety regulations

Trucking companies that hire unfit or improperly licensed drivers

Trucking companies that fail to properly train or supervise drivers

Trucking companies or service shops that improperly maintain or repair trucks

Cargo manufacturers that neglect to warn of hazardous materials

Loading companies that pack cargo in a precarious or unsafe manner

Truck parts manufacturers that sell defective components

 

 
How Do Lawyers Get Maximum Compensation for Truck Accidents?

First and foremost, experience is critical for fighting successfully against big insurance companies, trucking companies, and the defendants involved in 18-wheeler and large truck accidents. These parties will all mount aggressive defenses to limit their liability as much as they possibly can.  So, you need a truck accident attorney who knows how to handle what will be a challenging case due to the stakes and the complexities involved.

The Dallas truck accident attorneys at Tate Law Offices, P.C., have litigated against several deep-pocketed national trucking companies, including Swift Transportation, JB Hunt, Knight Transportation, and many others. We also have access to state and national databases with a wealth of information about the trucking industry, which gives us an advantage as we help you pursue full compensation in your claim. We have the experience you need to fight for maximum compensation. Please see our results page to see our wins. And, do not hesitate to contact us if you wish to see references or find out any other detail about our experience, qualifications or client satisfaction.

When you contact us with the details of your situation, we can get to work for you right away. It’s in your best interest to take prompt action. That’s why we will send a team to your accident scene immediately to document and preserve crucial evidence before it is lost or destroyed. Don’t hesitate to contact us for your truck accident case as soon as possible. When you contact us with the details of your situation, we can get to work for you right away.

Here are just a few of the ways we have won high-dollar settlements for our clients:

Thoroughly investigate the causes of your crash

Identify all possible sources of compensation

Determine best possible county in which to litigate your case

Consult with experts like accident reconstruction specialists

Assist you with managing and organizing important documents

Collect and preserve all possible supporting evidence for your case

Communicate with other parties on your behalf

Negotiate aggressively for a full insurance settlement

Argue for your best interests in court, if a settlement can’t be reached

There is little chance your case will be able to receive maximum compensation without a swift and comprehensive investigation of all the details that are relevant to your truck accident. Investigation leads to evidence, and the quality and completeness of the evidence in your case is the mainstay for proving damages and recovering losses. If your lawyer doesn’t know what details to investigate or where to look, then your case will likely be weakened. Truck accident cases are quite different than car accidents in a number of ways, so car accident experience is not enough to maximize settlement values in commercial vehicle cases.

Your truck wreck lawyer must understand the transportation regulations that apply to your case, how the location of a trial can seriously impact the outcome, the evidence needed, how to gather all relevant documents, how to find and use relevant data, how and where to get you proper medical care, what experts are needed to reconstruct the accident or validate the economics of your injuries and losses, be able to fend off attacks that are personal in nature, secure evidence right away and convince the defendants that they will be dealing with a serious case being put together to regain as much of what you’ve lost as possible. In essence you need a team of people fighting for your rights and doing so competently and confidently. One small mistake can reduce your case value significantly.

Absence of delay, attention to detail and unwavering tenacity are key components of a well-fought truck accident case.  Our truck accident attorneys work diligently to accomplish all of this and more. We are serious about winning, and we put our resources toward making sure your case is as strong as possible. Most of our clients come from referrals, so instead of spending heavily on marketing, we invest in each client’s success because we believe that our best marketing comes from doing our best to get maximum compensation for your injuries and other losses.

Dallas Province Leads the Territory of Texas in Destructive Truck and 18 Wheeler Mishaps


There were in excess of 24,500 truck and 18-wheeler mishap in Texas in 2022. Of those accidents, Dallas Area and Harris District drove the state in lethal truck crashes, with 29 each.


The most widely recognized reasons for Truck and 18 Wheeler Mishaps include:


Driver weakness


Occupied Driving


Speeding and crazy driving


Overweight or inappropriately stacked freight


Inadequate and ineffectively prepared transporters


Inappropriate upkeep and hardware disappointments


Driving affected by medications or liquor


Due to their size and weight, truck mishaps are significantly more liable to bring about serious wounds and, thus, include a lot bigger decisions and settlements than conventional engine vehicle crashes.


With millions in danger, shipping organizations and their groups of attorneys will do pretty much anything to try not to pay harmed casualties and their families, including stowing away and obliterating proof, accusing the people in question, and limiting the seriousness of any wounds and harms.


From winning the principal court-requested rest investigation of a business driver in Texas to getting admittance to a shipping organization's exclusive "black box" PC framework, our Dallas Truck Mishap Legal counselors and group of mishap recreation and armada security specialists know what's in store, what proof to search for, and — in particular — how to compel the shipping organizations to give it to us.
