Parker County Truck Accident Lawyers: Fighting for Victims of 18-Wheeler and Commercial Vehicle Wrecks

The impact was catastrophic. One moment you were driving along I-20 through Weatherford, heading home after a long day in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The next, 80,000 pounds of steel slammed into your sedan. In an instant, your car was unrecognizable, and your life was changed forever. An 80,000-pound truck doesn’t give you time to react, and it certainly doesn’t give you a fair fight. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured by a commercial vehicle in Parker County, you aren’t just dealing with a traffic ticket—you’re facing a legal emergency that requires immediate, aggressive intervention.

Trucking companies have teams of lawyers and rapid-response investigators who are often on the scene before the ambulance even leaves for Medical City Weatherford. Their job is to protect their profits by minimizing your claim. Our job is to protect you. At Attorney911, led by managing partner Ralph Manginello, we have spent over 25 years holding trucking companies and corporate giants accountable. We bring federal court experience and a relentless approach to every case we handle in Parker County. Our team includes associate attorney Lupe Peña, a former insurance defense lawyer who used to represent these very companies. He knows their playbook, he knows how they undervalue your pain, and he knows how to beat them at their own game.

Don’t wait while evidence disappears. Call us 24/7 at 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free consultation. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay absolutely nothing unless we win your case.

Why Parker County Trucking Accidents Are Different

Parker County is the gateway between the bustling DFW metroplex and the vast oilfields of West Texas. This unique position makes our roads, specifically segments of I-20, US-180, and FM 51, some of the most dangerous corridors for heavy truck traffic in North Texas. The sheer volume of freight moving through Weatherford, Aledo, and Willow Park creates a constant risk of collision. Unlike a typical car accident involving two passenger vehicles, a truck wreck in Parker County involves complex federal regulations, massive insurance policies, and multiple corporate entities that will fight tooth and nail to avoid responsibility.

Every 16 minutes, someone in America is injured or killed in a commercial truck crash. In Texas, we lead the nation in these devastating statistics. When an 18-wheeler, a vacuum truck from the Barnett Shale, or an Amazon delivery van causes an accident in Parker County, the investigation must go deeper than a simple police report. We look at the data—the black box, the electronic logs, and the driver’s history—to prove that safety was sacrificed for speed.

As client Chad Harris said after working with our firm, “You are NOT a pest to them and you are NOT just some client… You are FAMILY to them.” We bring that family-first mentality to every Parker County resident we represent, combined with the “bulldozer” legal strategy required to take down Fortune 500 defendants.

The Authority You Need When Disaster Strikes

When you’re up against a company like Walmart, Amazon, or a massive oilfield service provider, you need an attorney with a proven track record. Since 1998, Ralph Manginello has been a fixture in Texas courtrooms, admitted to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas and the State Bar of New York. We’ve gone toe-to-toe with the world’s largest corporations, including BP during the Texas City refinery litigation. We are currently litigating a $10 million lawsuit against a major university, demonstrating our capability to handle the highest-stakes litigation.

Our firm has recovered over $50 million for families across Texas. We have secured multi-million dollar settlements for traumatic brain injury victims, ranging from $1.5 million to $9.8 million, and wrongful death recoveries as high as $9.5 million. When you hire us for your Parker County case, you aren’t getting a “settlement mill” that takes the first lowball offer. You’re getting a trial-ready team that prepares every case as if it’s going to a jury.

Lupe Peña’s background gives us an “unfair advantage.” Having spent years inside the insurance defense industry, he knows exactly how adjusters use software to devalue your whiplash, your herniated discs, and your mental anguish. He exposes those tactics to maximize your recovery. Hablamos Español. Llame al 1-888-ATTY-911.

FMCSA Regulations: Proving Negligence in Parker County

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) sets the rules for every commercial vehicle crossing state lines or weighing over 10,001 pounds. In Parker County, we see these regulations violated every day. When a trucking company breaks federal law, it isn’t an “accident”—it’s negligence.

49 CFR Part 395: Hours of Service (HOS)

This is the most common violation we see on long stretches like I-20 between Parker County and Abilene. Federal law limits drivers to 11 hours of driving after 10 consecutive hours off duty. They are also limited by the 14-hour duty window and mandatory 30-minute breaks. Driver fatigue is a primary cause of rear-end collisions and lane-departure wrecks. If a driver was pushed by a carrier to “make the delivery” in Weatherford or bypass a weigh station to save time, we will find the proof in their Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data.

49 CFR Part 391: Driver Qualification

Trucking companies in Parker County have a “non-delegable duty” to ensure their drivers are qualified. This means checking their driving record, verifying their CDL, and ensuring they pass a medical exam. Under 49 CFR § 391.51, a carrier must maintain a Driver Qualification File. If we find that a company hired a driver with a history of DUIs or safety violations, we don’t just sue for the crash—we sue for negligent hiring.

49 CFR Part 396: Inspection, Repair, and Maintenance

An 80,000-pound truck is only as safe as its brakes and tires. 49 CFR § 396.3 requires systematic inspection and maintenance. Brake failure is a factor in nearly 30% of large truck crashes. In the heat of a Texas summer, tire blowouts on I-20 are frequent. If the maintenance logs show deferred repairs or “skipped” inspections, that trucking company is liable for every dollar of your damages.

49 CFR Part 382: Drug and Alcohol Testing

Commercial drivers are held to a higher standard. A BAC of .04 is considered intoxicated. Companies must perform pre-employment, random, and post-accident testing. If a driver in Parker County causes a wreck while under the influence of stimulants to stay awake or alcohol to dull the stress of the road, the liability is absolute.

Common Truck Accident Types in Parker County

The type of crash often dictates the type of evidence we need to secure. Because Parker County sees a mix of highway, rural, and residential traffic, we handle every category of commercial collision.

Jackknife Accidents

On the sloping curves of the I-20 interchanges in Parker County, a truck’s trailer can easily swing out perpendicular to the cab. This jackknife often occurs during sudden braking or on wet, slippery roads. It sweeps across three lanes of traffic, leaving cars nowhere to go. We investigate 49 CFR § 393.48 violations to see if a brake malfunction or improper cargo loading caused the trailer to lose its grip.

Rollover Crashes

Highly common with oilfield water trucks and cement mixers operating near new construction in Aledo and Willow Park. If a driver takes a turn too fast on a Parker County FM road, the high center of gravity causes 80,000 pounds to tip. These often result in “roof crush” injuries, leading to catastrophic spinal cord damage or traumatic brain injuries.

Underride Collisions

These are some of the most lethal wrecks we see in Parker County. When a car strikes the back or side of a trailer and slides underneath, the results are often fatal. We look for violations of 49 CFR § 393.86 regarding rear impact guards. If the truck’s Mansfield bar or side-guard was defective or missing, the manufacturer and the trucking company are accountable for the wrongful death.

Blind Spot “No-Zone” Wrecks

Trucks have massive blind spots on all four sides. If a driver merges into you on a busy Weatherford street without checking their mirrors, they have violated 49 CFR § 393.80. Modern trucks should be equipped with lane-departure and blind-spot sensors. If they aren’t, or if the driver ignored them, we move for maximum compensation.

Cargo Spills and Shifts

Parker County is a major route for pipe haulers, gravel trucks, and oilfield equipment. If cargo isn’t secured under 49 CFR § 393.100, it can fall into traffic or shift, causing the truck to lose control. We’ve seen these spills cause multi-vehicle pileups that shut down the highway for hours.

Specialized Commercial Vehicle Wrecks

It isn’t always an 18-wheeler. Parker County’s roads are filled with a variety of commercial vehicles, each with its own set of risks.

Oilfield Trucks: Based on our proximity to the Barnett Shale, vacuum trucks, sand haulers, and crew vans are everywhere. These drivers often work grueling 12-to-14-hour “hitches,” leading to extreme fatigue.
Dump Trucks and Concrete Mixers: Essential for Parker County’s rapid growth, these vehicles are top-heavy and often overloaded. A concrete truck can weigh 70,000 pounds and has a rotating drum that makes it difficult to stabilize in a sudden maneuver.
Delivery Vans (Amazon/FedEx/UPS): In neighborhoods across Parker County, small delivery vans are rushing to meet quotas. They often double-park or back up blindly, striking pedestrians or cyclists.
Rental/Moving Trucks (U-Haul/Penske): These are particularly dangerous because they are often driven by civilians with zero commercial training. If U-Haul rents a 26-foot truck to an unqualified driver in Parker County, they can be held liable for negligent entrustment.

Who is Liable for Your Injuries?

Most people think only the driver is at fault. Our firm knows better. To get you every dime you deserve, we cast a wide net to find every available insurance policy. In a Parker County truck accident, there can be 16 or more liable parties:

The Driver: For direct negligence like speeding or distraction.
The Trucking Carrier: Under “respondeat superior,” the master is responsible for the servant.
The Corporate Parent (Walmart/Amazon): If a branded truck hits you, the company whose name is on the side is often the primary target. We pierce the “independent contractor” shield that companies like Amazon use to hide from liability.
The Freight Broker: If they hired a carrier with a “conditional” safety rating to save a few dollars.
The Maintenance Company: If the brakes failed because a third-party mechanic in Parker County or DFW cut corners.
The Cargo Loader: For improperly balancing 40,000 pounds of freight.
The Truck Manufacturer: If a tire blowout or steering failure was caused by a design defect.
The Oilfield Operator: If the company man pressured a water truck driver to ignore HOS rules to keep the site running.

As client Donald Wilcox said, “One company said they would not accept my case. Then I got a call from Manginello… I got a call to come pick up this handsome check.” We don’t fear complex liability chains. We thrive on them.

The 48-Hour Evidence Preservation Window

In Parker County, the clock is ticking against you. Trucking companies are notorious for “losing” or “overwriting” unfavorable data.

Black Box (ECM) Data: This records your speed and braking in the seconds before impact. Most systems overwrite every 30 days or after a few more engine starts.
ELD Logs: Federal law only requires these be kept for six months. If they show a driver was over hours, the carrier wants that gone.
In-Cab Video: Systems like Netradyne (used by Amazon) or DriveCam record driver distraction. This footage often “disappears” if there is no legal requirement to keep it.

We send a formal spoliation letter within 24 to 48 hours of being hired. This legally forces the carrier to freeze their records. If they destroy evidence after receiving our letter, we can move for a “spoliation instruction” in a Parker County court, where the jury is told to assume the evidence was bad for the trucking company.

If you’ve been in a wreck, see our video: “I’ve Had an Accident — What Should I Do First?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCox4Lq7zBM

Recovering Compensation for Your Losses

When 80,000 pounds hits a 4,000-pound car, the injuries are never “minor.” We fight for full compensation in every category:

Economic Damages (The Bills)

Medical Expenses: Every ER visit to Medical City Weatherford, every surgery, and every physical therapy session.
Future Care: For TBIs or spinal injuries, this includes 24/7 home health care and life-care plans.
Lost Wages: Not just the time you missed while in the hospital, but your loss of earning capacity—the career you can no longer have because of your limitations.

Non-Economic Damages (The Life Impact)

Pain and Suffering: The daily agony of a crushed pelvis or chronic nerve damage.
Mental Anguish: The PTSD that keeps you from driving on I-20 or even getting into a car.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life: Not being able to pick up your kids or participate in the outdoor life Parker County is known for.

As Glenda Walker said, “They fought for me to get every dime I deserved.” We aren’t just calculating numbers; we’re documenting your story to ensure the insurance company sees you as a human being, not a line item.

Common Questions After an Parker County Truck Accident

How long do I have to file my claim?
In Texas, the statute of limitations is generally two years from the date of the wreck. However, if you’re hit by a government vehicle (like a Parker County road crew truck or a school bus), you may have as little as 90 to 180 days to give formal notice. Never wait until the deadline is close.

What if the driver doesn’t have enough insurance?
Federal law requires $750,000 for general freight and $5 million for hazardous materials. Most carriers in Parker County also have excess umbrella policies worth tens of millions. Our job is to “stack” these policies. If the trucker doesn’t have enough, we look to the company that loaded the truck or the broker who dispatched it.

Can I get a payout for PTSD?
Absolutely. Many survivors in Parker County experience nightmares, flashbacks, and a total inability to drive on highways. These are psychological injuries as real as a broken bone. Learn more in our video: “Can I Get a PTSD Payout After a Car Accident?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9803X_jnR4A

What if I was partially at fault?
Texas follows a “51% bar rule.” If you were 20% at fault for the accident on FM 51, you can still recover 80% of your damages. But if you’re found more than 50% at fault, you recover nothing. This is why you need a former insurance defense lawyer like Lupe Peña to fight back when the carrier tries to blame you.

How much does this cost?
Zero upfront. We never send you a bill. We only get paid a percentage of the final recovery. If we don’t win, you don’t owe us a dime. As Ernest Cano put it, “Mr. Manginello and his firm are first class. Will fight tooth and nail for you.”

Parker County’s High-Stakes Trucking Corridors

Whether it was a head-on collision on US-180 or a sideswipe on I-20 near the Hudson Oaks expansion, we know these roads. We know the specific bottlenecks in Weatherford where wide-turn accidents are common and the dark stretches of rural county roads where fatigued oilfield drivers are a constant threat. Your case deserves an attorney who doesn’t need a GPS to find the scene of your accident.

When a corporate giant like Walmart or Amazon causes an injury in Parker County, they send their “A-Team” to the defense. You need your own “A-Team.” Ralph Manginello and the legal professionals at Attorney911 bring more than just law degrees—they bring a tenacity that forces insurers to take your claim seriously.

Catastrophic Injuries We Handle

Truck wrecks don’t result in bruises; they result in permanent trauma. Our settlement ranges reflect the severity of these cases:

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): $1.5M – $9.8M range.
Amputation/Loss of Limb: $1.9M – $8.6M range.
Spinal Cord Injuries: $4.7M – $25.8M range.

As client Kiimarii Yup shared, “I lost everything… 1 year later I have gained so much in return plus a brand new truck.” While we can’t restore your health, we can secure the financial future your family needs to survive.

Complete Commercial Vehicle Liability: Who Pays in Parker County?

The web of liability in a trucking accident is the most complex area of personal injury law. In Parker County, a single truck on I-20 might be pulling a trailer owned by another company, carrying a load brokered by a third company, and driven by a contractor employed by a fourth company.

The Walmart Model: Walmart is a “solvent defendant” with its own fleet. This makes them easier to identify but harder to negotiate with, as they are often self-insured and fight for every penny.
The Amazon DSP Defense: Amazon will tell you the van that hit you isn’t an Amazon van. We use their own Netradyne camera data and performance metrics to prove Amazon is actually the “statutory employer.”
The Oilfield Chain: In the oil patch, the driller, the operator, and the hauling contractor often spend years in court pointing fingers at each other. We sue them all together to stop the games.

Our firm solved in a couple of months what others did nothing about in two years, as client Angel Walle can attest. We cut through the red tape and find the insurance policies that matter.

Final Word to the Victims of Truck Accidents in Parker County

You didn’t ask for this. You were just living your life when 80,000 pounds of negligence slammed into you. The pain is real, the hospital bills are stacking up, and the insurance adjuster is being “too nice” to be trusted.

Detailed FAQ for Parker County Residents

Q: I was hit by an oilfield water truck on a two-lane Parker County road. Who is responsible?
A: Both the trucking company and potentially the oil company that hired them. Many oilfield trucks are chronically overloaded, which is a direct violation of 49 CFR Part 393. We look at the “Company Man’s” logs at the wellsite to see if they were rushing the drivers.

Q: A delivery van backed into me in a Weatherford parking lot. Is that a truck accident?
A: Yes. Any vehicle used for commercial purposes is a commercial vehicle. If the driver was distracted or lacked training in backing maneuvers, the company is liable. See our video: “The Ultimate Guide to Garbage Truck Accidents” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFHMs9cO70M for similar low-speed commercial liability.

Q: The truck driver didn’t get a ticket. Does that mean I can’t sue?
A: Not at all. A police officer in Parker County makes a split-second decision. We spend months investigating. We use experts to reconstruct the crash and prove speed or fatigue that the officer couldn’t see at the scene.

Q: The insurance company said they’d “take care of me.” Why should I call a lawyer?
A: They say that to keep you from speaking with someone like Ralph Manginello. Their idea of “taking care of you” is likely a settlement that won’t even cover your future medical needs. Watch: “What Should You Not Say to an Insurance Adjuster?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UKRbFprB0E

Q: What if the truck that hit me in Parker County was from out of state?
A: This is where our federal court experience is vital. Interstate trucking cases often end up in federal court in Texas. Ralph Manginello is admitted to these courts and handles “diversity jurisdiction” cases regularly.

Parker County Truck Accident Checklist

Preserve the Data: Call 1-888-ATTY-911 immediately so we can send a spoliation letter within the 48-hour “Danger Zone.”
Stay Off Social Media: In Parker County, insurance adjusters are currently searching for your Facebook and Instagram profiles to see if you’re “really” hurt.

Understanding the Physics of Your Impact

A fully loaded semi-trailer in Parker County weighs up to 80,000 lbs. When it hits your 4,000 lb car, the kinetic energy transfer is absolute. This force leads to:

Shearing of Axons in the Brain: Leading to lifelong cognitive deficits.
Compression of Vertebrae: Causing herniated discs or paralysis.
Crush Syndrome: Where muscle breakdown after an accident leads to kidney failure (this is a key element in our current $10M hazing litigation as well).

Our expert accident reconstructionists use the truck’s Engine Control Module (ECM) to translate these physics into courtroom-ready evidence. We don’t just say they were speeding; we prove the exact MPH at the moment your life changed.

The Role of Lupe Peña: Former Insurance Defense Insider

When we sit down at the negotiation table with companies like Walmart or Allstate, we know what is on their screen. Lupe Peña spent years in those offices. He knows how they use “Independent Medical Exams” to lie about your injuries. He knows how they strategically delay cases in Parker County to wear you out mentally and financially. Because he knows their moves, we are always three steps ahead.

Parker County-Specific Road Hazards and Trucking Risks

In Parker County, our unique road infrastructure often contributes to truck accidents. The “Weatherford bottleneck” on I-20, where lanes shift and local traffic merges with heavy interstate freight, is a notorious hotspot for side-swipe and rear-end collisions. Furthermore, our many Farm-to-Market (FM) roads, such as FM 920 and FM 51, were never designed to handle the 80,000-pound loads now common in the natural gas and construction sectors. When these narrow roads meet high-speed truck traffic, head-on collisions and ditch-rollovers become common.

We understand these local hazards. We know how to argue that a trucking company was negligent for choosing a route through a residential Parker County neighborhood or for failing to account for the steep grades and tight turns on our rural routes.

Catastrophic Loss: Wrongful Death Damages in the State of Texas

If the unthinkable has happened and you have lost a family member in a Parker County truck wreck, you are entitled to several categories of damages under Texas law:

Direct Pecuniary Losses: The income your loved one would have provided for the rest of their life.
Loss of Consortium: The loss of love, companionship, and comfort that person provided.
Loss of Guidance: For children who have lost a parent.
Survival Damages: Compensation for the physical pain and mental anguish your loved one experienced in the moments before their death.

While we recognize that no amount of money can replace your loved one, a multi-million dollar verdict sends a message to the trucking industry that Parker County lives matter. We fight to make it so expensive for these companies to be negligent that they are forced to change their ways.

The Industry Insurance Minimums and Your Claim

Most car accident lawyers in Parker County are used to dealing with $30,000 or $50,000 insurance policies. In a trucking case, that doesn’t even cover the first day in the ICU. Because 18-wheelers carry $750,000 to $5 million in primary coverage, the stakes are exponentially higher. The insurance companies don’t send their “local adjusters” to these cases; they send their “major loss” teams.

These teams are trained to build a “comparative fault” defense, trying to pin even 10% of the blame on you to save their company millions. We use Lupe Peña’s insider knowledge to dismantle these defenses. We found the evidence that “one company said they would not accept my case” and turned it into the check Donald Wilcox mentioned.

Our Offices are Ready to Serve You

Though we have main offices in Houston and Austin, our reach extends across the entire state.

The Impact of Corporate Fleet Negligence

When you see a commercial vehicle with a name like Walmart, Coca-Cola, or Amazon on it, you’re seeing a company that values its brand above all else. They spend millions on advertising in Parker County to look like “good neighbors.” But in the courtroom, those same neighbors will try to blame you for their driver’s fatigue or their broker’s negligence.

We use their brand against them. We argue that a company that earns billions can afford to maintain its brakes and pay for its drivers to rest properly. If they can’t afford safety, they shouldn’t be on the Parker County roads.

The Maintenance Provider: Failure to inspect.

The Owner-Operator: Independent liability.

Nuclear Verdicts and Your Settlement

The term “nuclear verdict” refers to a jury award that exceeds $10 million. Since 2015, these have become a regular occurrence in the trucking industry because juries are tired of seeing people die because a company wanted to save a few dollars on maintenance. While we never promise a specific number, we use the threat of these verdicts to force much higher settlements in Parker County. When an insurance company knows they are going to trial against Ralph Manginello, they suddenly find the “missing” funds to make a fair offer.

Specialized Injury Focus: Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) in Trucking

Because 18-wheelers carry so much mass, the brain is often violently shaken inside the skull, even if you don’t hit your head. This “axonal shearing” is invisible on many standard scans. We work with the top neurologists in the Parker County and DFW area to perform the specialized imaging (DTI, PET scans) that proves the injury. If you have headaches, vision problems, or mood changes after your Parker County wreck, don’t ignore it. It could be the sign of a multi-million dollar injury.

The Difference Between a Semi-Truck and a Commercial Van

In Parker County, you might be hit by an 80,000 lb 18-wheeler or a 9,000 lb Ford Transit delivery van. While the weights are different, the legal principles are often the same. Both are commercial vehicles. Both carry commercial insurance. And both drivers are often under ridiculous time pressure from a corporate boss. Whether it was a big rig or a box truck, we applied the same aggressive tactics that secured $50 million for our clients.

Final Checklist Before You Accept an Offer

Has your doctor cleared you from all further treatment?
Have you calculated your lost retirement contributions?
Has a life-care planner looked at your needs in 20 years?
Have you seen the black box data from the truck?
Have you spoken with Ralph Manginello?

If any of these are “No,” do not sign that paper. The insurance company is trying to buy your silence for pennies on the dollar.

Why Lupe Peña’s Former Career is Your Shield

Insurance companies use a rotating set of defenses. “The driver was an independent contractor.” “The claimant had a pre-existing back injury.” “The sun was in the driver’s eyes.” Having worked inside those defense firms, Lupe Peña knows the rebuttal to every single one of those excuses. He knows which adjusters will pay and which ones need to be sued to start moving. This creates a case velocity that Angel Walle described: “They solved in a couple of months what others did nothing about in two years.”

The Reality of Oilfield Trucking in Parker County

West of Weatherford, the character of trucking changes. We aren’t just dealing with retail freight anymore; we are dealing with high-pressure oilfield logistics. These trucks are often older, less maintained, and operated on “lease roads” that are nothing more than dirt paths. If you were hit by a sand hauler or a water truck, the operator’s liability is often tied to the state of the road itself. We look for “notice of dangerous condition” to hold the oil company liable for the road their trucks destroyed.

The Search for Truth in Digital Forensics

In every truck accident we handle in Parker County, we hire digital forensic experts to download the “telematic” data. Most modern fleets track EVERYTHING: every hard brake, every swerve, every moment the driver took their eyes off the road to look at a phone. This data is the “smoking gun.” The driver might say they were attentive, but the telematics might show they were on TikTok. We find the data that wins the case.

Don’t wait while they delete the truth.

FMCSA Violation Deep Dive: Why Your Case is Worth More

When we find a violation of 49 CFR Part 395 (Hours of Service), we use it to prove that the company’s entire safety culture is broken. If they let one driver stay awake for 20 hours, they are likely letting them all do it. This opens the door for punitive damages ($10M+ potential). We look for:

Logbook Falsification: “Ghost logs” where a driver pretends to be off-duty.
Speeding for Conditions: 49 CFR § 392.6 requires drivers to slow down in Parker County storms.
Medical Fraud: Drivers using stimulants to beat the 14-hour clock.

We find what they hide. Call 1-888-ATTY-911.

The Impact of Construction Trucking in Aledo and Willow Park

With thousands of new homes being built in Eastern Parker County, “aggregate delivery” is a 24-hour industry. Heavily loaded dump trucks are often driven by sub-contractors who are paid “by the load.” This pay structure incentivizes speed and reckless driving. If you were hit by a construction truck, we check the payment logs to prove the driver was essentially bribed by the company to drive unsafely.

Understanding “Strict Liability” and Trucking

While most cases are based on “negligence,” some trucking accidents involve “negligence per se.” This happens when a driver violates a safety statute (like running a red light in Weatherford or violating FMCSA weight limits). In these cases, the law presumes they were negligent. This makes your case much easier to win and your settlement much larger. We are experts at finding these “negligence per se” triggers in the FMCSA manual.
