18-Wheeler Accident Attorneys in Roman Forest, TX

If you or a loved one has been involved in an 18-wheeler accident in Roman Forest, Texas, you need experienced legal representation that understands the unique challenges of trucking cases in Montgomery County. At Attorney911, we’ve been fighting for truck accident victims across Texas for over 25 years, and we’re ready to put that experience to work for you.

Why Roman Forest Trucking Accidents Are Different

Roman Forest sits at the crossroads of major Texas trucking corridors. Our community is served by I-69/US-59, which connects Houston to East Texas and beyond, and FM 1485, which sees significant commercial traffic serving local businesses and distribution centers. The combination of heavy truck traffic, local commuters, and residents creates a dangerous mix that leads to serious accidents.

In our experience handling trucking cases throughout East Texas, we’ve seen how accidents on these routes often involve:

Trucks traveling from the Port of Houston to distribution centers in Cleveland, Livingston, and beyond
Commercial vehicles serving the growing residential and commercial developments in Roman Forest and surrounding areas
Long-haul trucks moving through our community on their way to destinations across Texas and the country
Local delivery trucks serving businesses along FM 1485 and other local roads

The trucking corridors serving Roman Forest present unique challenges. The mix of highway speeds on I-69/US-59 with local traffic patterns creates dangerous conditions where accidents are more likely to occur and more likely to cause catastrophic injuries.

Common Causes of Trucking Accidents in Roman Forest

Every year, we handle numerous trucking accident cases in Roman Forest and throughout Montgomery County. Some of the most common causes we see include:

Driver Fatigue and Hours of Service Violations

Truck drivers often face pressure from their employers to meet tight delivery deadlines. This pressure leads to hours of service violations, where drivers exceed the federally mandated limits on driving time. Under FMCSA regulations (49 CFR Part 395), property-carrying drivers cannot drive more than 11 hours after 10 consecutive hours off duty, and they cannot drive beyond the 14th consecutive hour after coming on duty.

In Roman Forest, we frequently see drivers violating these rules on long hauls between Houston and East Texas destinations. The consequences can be devastating – fatigued drivers have slower reaction times, impaired judgment, and are more likely to fall asleep at the wheel.

Improper Maintenance and Brake Failures

Trucking companies are required by federal law (49 CFR Part 396) to systematically inspect, repair, and maintain all motor vehicles under their control. This includes regular brake inspections and adjustments. Unfortunately, many companies cut corners on maintenance to save money.

In our cases, we’ve seen brake failures cause rear-end collisions on I-69/US-59, where trucks traveling at highway speeds couldn’t stop in time to avoid slower-moving traffic. We’ve also handled cases where improperly maintained tires blew out on FM 1485, causing trucks to lose control and strike other vehicles.

Distracted Driving

Despite federal regulations prohibiting hand-held mobile phone use (49 CFR § 392.82) and texting while driving (49 CFR § 392.80), distracted driving remains a significant problem among commercial drivers. In Roman Forest, we’ve handled cases where drivers were distracted by:

Cell phone use while navigating local roads
Dispatch communications through in-cab devices
GPS systems that require manual input
Eating or drinking while driving
Daydreaming or zoning out during long hauls

Distracted driving is particularly dangerous on local roads like FM 1485, where drivers need to be alert for sudden stops, pedestrians, and changing traffic patterns.

Improper Cargo Loading and Securement

Federal cargo securement regulations (49 CFR § 393.100-136) require that cargo be properly secured to prevent shifting, leaking, or falling from the vehicle. When cargo isn’t properly secured, it can shift during transit, causing the truck to become unstable and increasing the risk of rollover accidents.

In Roman Forest, we’ve seen cases where improperly secured loads have caused:

Rollovers on I-69/US-59 when cargo shifted during lane changes
Cargo spills on local roads that created hazards for other drivers
Overweight loads that exceeded the truck’s capacity, leading to brake failures

Speeding and Aggressive Driving

Truck drivers are required to operate at safe speeds for conditions (49 CFR § 392.6). However, we frequently see cases where drivers exceed speed limits to meet delivery deadlines. Speeding is particularly dangerous on I-69/US-59, where trucks traveling at high speeds need significantly more distance to stop.

In Roman Forest, we’ve handled cases where speeding trucks:

Failed to stop in time for traffic congestion on I-69/US-59
Lost control on curves or during lane changes
Struck vehicles that were slowing or stopped at intersections

Wide Turn Accidents

Trucks need significantly more space to make turns than passenger vehicles. When making right turns, truck drivers often need to swing wide to the left to avoid curbs, signs, or other obstacles. This creates a dangerous situation where other vehicles may try to pass the truck on the right, only to be caught in the truck’s blind spot.

In Roman Forest, we’ve handled numerous cases where wide turn accidents occurred at intersections along FM 1485 and other local roads. These accidents often result in severe injuries to occupants of smaller vehicles that are crushed between the truck and the curb or another vehicle.

The Devastating Injuries We See in Roman Forest Trucking Accidents

The physics of trucking accidents make catastrophic injuries the norm, not the exception. A fully loaded 18-wheeler can weigh up to 80,000 pounds – 20 to 25 times more than the average passenger vehicle. When these massive vehicles collide with smaller cars, the results are often devastating.

In our Roman Forest cases, we’ve seen:

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

TBI occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain. In trucking accidents, the extreme forces can cause the brain to impact the inside of the skull, leading to bruising, bleeding, and cell damage.

We’ve handled cases where Roman Forest residents suffered:

Mild TBI (concussions) with symptoms that persisted for months or years
Moderate TBI requiring extensive rehabilitation
Severe TBI resulting in permanent cognitive impairment and the need for lifelong care

The lifetime care costs for severe TBI can exceed $3 million, and that doesn’t include compensation for pain and suffering or lost wages.

Spinal Cord Injuries and Paralysis

Spinal cord injuries disrupt communication between the brain and body, often resulting in paralysis. The location and severity of the injury determine the extent of the paralysis.

In Roman Forest cases, we’ve represented clients with:

Paraplegia (loss of function below the waist)
Quadriplegia (loss of function in all four limbs)
Incomplete injuries where some nerve function remains

The lifetime care costs for spinal cord injuries range from $1.1 million for low paraplegia to over $5 million for high quadriplegia.

Amputations

Amputations occur when limbs are severed at the scene due to crash forces or when limbs are so severely damaged that they must be surgically removed.

In our Roman Forest cases, we’ve seen:

Traumatic amputations at the scene
Surgical amputations performed to save lives
Multiple amputations from a single accident

The ongoing medical needs for amputees include prosthetic limbs (which can cost $5,000 to $50,000 each and need replacement throughout a lifetime), physical therapy, occupational therapy, and psychological counseling.

Severe Burns

Burns occur in trucking accidents when fuel tanks rupture and ignite, when hazardous materials spill and catch fire, or when electrical systems are damaged.

We’ve handled cases involving:

First-degree burns (affecting only the outer layer of skin)
Second-degree burns (affecting both the outer and underlying layer of skin)
Third-degree burns (destroying both layers of skin and potentially damaging underlying tissues)
Fourth-degree burns (extending through skin to muscle and bone)

Severe burns often require multiple surgeries, skin grafts, and extensive rehabilitation. The psychological trauma from burn injuries can be as devastating as the physical injuries.

Wrongful Death

When trucking accidents result in fatalities, surviving family members may be entitled to compensation through a wrongful death claim. In Texas, the statute of limitations for wrongful death claims is two years from the date of the accident.

We’ve represented Roman Forest families in wrongful death cases, helping them recover compensation for:

Lost future income and benefits
Loss of companionship and guidance
Mental anguish and emotional suffering
Funeral and burial expenses
Medical expenses incurred before death

Who Can Be Held Liable in a Roman Forest Trucking Accident?

One of the key differences between trucking accidents and car accidents is that multiple parties can be held liable for your injuries. In car accident cases, liability typically falls on one driver. In trucking accidents, we often pursue claims against several defendants, which can significantly increase the compensation available to our clients.

In Roman Forest trucking cases, we’ve held the following parties accountable:

The Truck Driver

The driver who caused the accident may be personally liable for their negligent conduct. Common driver negligence includes:

Speeding or reckless driving
Distracted driving (cell phone use, dispatch communications, etc.)
Fatigued driving beyond legal limits
Impaired driving (drugs, alcohol)
Failure to conduct proper pre-trip inspections
Violation of traffic laws

In our cases, we’ve seen drivers make critical errors that led to accidents, such as failing to check blind spots before changing lanes on I-69/US-59 or making improper turns on FM 1485.

The Trucking Company / Motor Carrier

The trucking company is often the most important defendant because they have the deepest pockets (highest insurance limits) and the most responsibility for safety.

Trucking companies can be held liable under several legal theories:

Vicarious Liability (Respondeat Superior):
The company can be held liable for the driver’s negligence if:

The driver was an employee (not an independent contractor)
The driver was acting within the scope of employment
The driver was performing job duties when the accident occurred

Direct Negligence:
The company can be held directly liable for its own negligence, including:

Negligent Hiring: Failing to check the driver’s background, driving record, or qualifications
Negligent Training: Providing inadequate safety training
Negligent Supervision: Failing to monitor driver performance or compliance with regulations
Negligent Maintenance: Failing to maintain vehicles in safe condition
Negligent Scheduling: Pressuring drivers to violate hours of service regulations

In our Roman Forest cases, we’ve uncovered evidence of trucking companies cutting corners on safety to save money, such as failing to conduct proper background checks on drivers or deferring critical maintenance.

Cargo Owner / Shipper

The company that owns the cargo and arranged for its shipment may be liable if:

They provided improper loading instructions
They failed to disclose the hazardous nature of the cargo
They required overweight loading
They pressured the carrier to expedite delivery beyond safe limits
They misrepresented the cargo’s weight or characteristics

In Roman Forest, we’ve handled cases where shippers failed to properly disclose hazardous materials, leading to dangerous cargo spills.

Cargo Loading Company

Third-party loading companies that physically load cargo onto trucks may be liable for improper securement. We’ve seen cases where loading companies:

Used inadequate tiedowns
Created unbalanced load distributions
Exceeded vehicle weight ratings
Failed to use proper blocking, bracing, or friction mats
Didn’t train loaders on securement requirements

Truck and Trailer Manufacturer

The company that manufactured the truck, trailer, or major components may be liable for defects. We’ve handled cases involving:

Design defects in brake systems
Manufacturing defects in steering components
Failure to warn of known dangers
Defective safety systems (ABS, ESC, collision warning)

Parts Manufacturer

Companies that manufacture specific parts (brakes, tires, steering components) may be liable for defective products. In our cases, we’ve seen:

Defective brakes or brake components
Defective tires causing blowouts
Defective steering mechanisms
Defective lighting components
Defective coupling devices

Maintenance Company

Third-party maintenance companies that service trucking fleets may be liable for negligent repairs. We’ve handled cases where maintenance companies:

Performed negligent repairs that failed to fix problems
Failed to identify critical safety issues
Made improper brake adjustments
Used substandard or wrong parts
Returned vehicles to service with known defects

Freight Broker

Freight brokers who arrange transportation but don’t own trucks may be liable for negligent carrier selection. We’ve pursued claims against brokers who:

Selected carriers with poor safety records
Failed to verify carrier insurance and authority
Failed to check carrier CSA scores
Chose the cheapest carrier despite safety concerns

Truck Owner (If Different from Carrier)

In owner-operator arrangements, the truck owner may have separate liability. We investigate all relationships and insurance policies to ensure our clients can recover from all responsible parties.

Government Entity

In some cases, government entities may share liability. We’ve handled cases where:

Dangerous road design contributed to the accident
Failure to maintain roads (potholes, debris, worn markings) played a role
Inadequate signage failed to warn of known hazards
Failure to install safety barriers increased the severity of the accident
Improper work zone setup created dangerous conditions

Government liability cases have special rules, including shorter notice requirements and potential damage caps. It’s critical to act quickly in these cases.

The Evidence We Preserve in Roman Forest Trucking Cases

In trucking accident cases, evidence disappears quickly. Trucking companies have rapid-response teams that begin protecting their interests within hours of an accident. If you don’t act quickly, critical evidence will be lost forever.

At Attorney911, we understand the urgency of these cases. We send spoliation letters within 24-48 hours of being retained to preserve all evidence related to the accident. This includes:

Electronic Data

Engine Control Module (ECM) / Black Box Data:
Commercial trucks have electronic systems that continuously record operational data – similar to an airplane’s black box. This data can show:

Speed before and during the crash
Brake application timing
Throttle position
Whether cruise control was engaged
GPS location
Engine RPM and fault codes

In our Roman Forest cases, we’ve used ECM data to prove that drivers were speeding on I-69/US-59 or failed to apply brakes in time to avoid a collision.

Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Data:
ELDs are federally mandated devices that record driver hours of service. ELD data proves whether the driver violated federal rest requirements and was driving while fatigued. Hours of service violations are among the most common causes of trucking accidents we see.

GPS and Telematics Data:
This data provides real-time location history and can show:

The truck’s route before the accident
Speed at various points
Driver behavior patterns
Any deviations from planned routes

Dashcam Footage:
Many trucks are equipped with forward-facing and sometimes cab-facing cameras. This footage can show:

The moments leading up to the crash
Driver behavior (distraction, fatigue, etc.)
Road conditions
Traffic patterns

In one Roman Forest case, dashcam footage showed that the truck driver was looking down at his phone just before the collision.

Dispatch Records:
These records can show:

Communications between the driver and company
Delivery schedules and deadlines
Any pressure to meet tight delivery times
Route instructions

Driver Records

Driver Qualification File:
FMCSA requires trucking companies to maintain a file for every driver containing:

Employment application
Driving record check
Previous employer verification
Medical certification
Drug test results
Training documentation

Incomplete or missing files can prove negligent hiring.

Hours of Service Records:
ELD records for the 6 months prior to the accident can show patterns of HOS violations and fatigue.

Drug and Alcohol Test Results:
Federal regulations require drug and alcohol testing in certain circumstances. We obtain:

Pre-employment test results
Random test results
Post-accident test results
Reasonable suspicion test results

Cell Phone Records:
These records can prove distracted driving by showing:

Calls made or received
Text messages sent or received
Data usage (indicating internet browsing or app use)

Vehicle Records

Maintenance and Repair Records:
We obtain records showing:

When the truck was last serviced
What repairs were performed
What parts were replaced
Any known defects or issues

Inspection Reports:
Drivers are required to conduct pre-trip and post-trip inspections. We obtain:

Pre-trip inspection reports
Post-trip inspection reports
Annual inspection reports
Any out-of-service orders

Tire Records:
Tire failures are a common cause of trucking accidents. We obtain:

Tire purchase records
Tire inspection records
Tire replacement history

Physical Evidence

The Truck and Trailer:
We preserve the truck and trailer for inspection by our experts. This includes:

Photographing all damage
Preserving failed components
Documenting maintenance issues

Failed or Damaged Components:
We preserve any failed or damaged components for analysis by our experts, including:

Failed brakes
Blown tires
Damaged lighting systems
Failed coupling devices

Cargo and Securement Devices:
We document:

How the cargo was loaded
What securement devices were used
Whether the cargo shifted during transit

1. Seek Medical Attention Immediately

Roman Forest residents can seek medical care at:

Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital in Humble

Local urgent care centers

2. Call the Police

Always call 911 and report the accident. The police will:

Document the scene

The police report will be critical evidence in your case.

3. Document the Scene

Photographing the accident scene, road conditions, and skid marks
Taking photos of your injuries

Common Questions About Roman Forest Trucking Accidents

How long do I have to file a trucking accident lawsuit in Texas?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases, including trucking accidents, is two years from the date of the accident. However, you should never wait to contact an attorney. Evidence disappears quickly in trucking cases, and the sooner you act, the stronger your case will be.

How much is my trucking accident case worth?

The value of your case depends on many factors, including:

The severity of your injuries
Your medical expenses (past and future)
Your lost wages and earning capacity
Your pain and suffering
The degree of the defendant’s negligence
The insurance coverage available

Trucking companies carry higher insurance limits than typical drivers, often $750,000 to $5,000,000 or more. This higher coverage means catastrophic injuries can actually be compensated.

Will my case go to trial?

Most trucking accident cases settle before trial. However, we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial. Insurance companies know which attorneys are willing to go to court, and they offer better settlements to clients with trial-ready attorneys.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system. This means:

If you were less than 51% at fault, you can still recover compensation
Your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault
If you were 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover anything

For example, if you were 20% at fault and your damages were $100,000, you would recover $80,000.

What if the trucking company goes bankrupt?

Trucking companies are required to carry liability insurance. Even if the company goes bankrupt, the insurance company is still responsible for paying valid claims. We also investigate all potentially liable parties to ensure you can recover from all responsible parties.

Can I sue if my loved one was killed in a trucking accident?

Yes. In Texas, surviving family members can bring a wrongful death claim. You may be able to recover compensation for:

Lost future income and benefits
Loss of companionship and guidance
Mental anguish and emotional suffering
Funeral and burial expenses
Medical expenses incurred before death

How long does a trucking accident case take to resolve?

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case:

Simple cases with clear liability: 6-12 months
Complex cases with multiple parties: 1-3 years
Cases that go to trial: 2-4 years

We work to resolve cases as quickly as possible while maximizing your recovery.

What if the truck driver was an independent contractor?

Even if the driver was an independent contractor, both the driver and the contracting company may be liable. We investigate all relationships and insurance policies to ensure you can recover from all responsible parties.
