Dallas Trucking Accident Lawyers

Representing trucking accident clients in Dallas, Texas

When a truck is on the road, it generates an astounding amount of speed and force for its massive size.  Most trucks weight tons.  This means that even a small truck can weigh up to 2,000 pounds at the low end, and that is when it is not even fully stocked.  When you factor in the sheer size and weight of trucks, it is truly horrendous to imagine what happens to people who are involved in collisions with these vehicles. 

People who are involved in trucking accidents with:  semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, tractor trailers and other types of industrial trucks are facing life-altering physical injuries, if not instantaneous death.  Additionally, it is extremely common for trucking accident survivors to enter into shock or to suffer from trauma years after the truck accident.

Trucking accidents can happen for a variety of reasons.  However, the most common reason is statistically proven to be truck driver negligence and recklessness.  All too often, truck drivers and their employers partake in driving behaviors and illegal practices that not only place truck drivers’ lives in jeopardy, but also the people with whom they are sharing the road.
