Big Spring, Texas I-20 Wrong-Way Crash: What the NTSB Found and What It Means for Your Family If you found this page, someone you love was probably hurt or killed in a wrong-way crash — or you are living with the injuries yourself. You may be sitting in a hospital room, or at a kitchen table at 2 a.m. with a folder of bills that suddenly became unpayable, and you are trying to understand what happens next. You may have heard that the National Transportation Safety Board finished its investigation of the November 2021 wrong-way collision on I-20 in Big Spring — the one that killed three people and injured fifty others when a pickup truck driving the wrong direction hit buses carrying the Andrews High School band. You may have heard that the driver was not impaired, was not on his phone, and that the NTSB could not figure out why he went the wrong way. And you may be wondering whether any of that makes your case harder. It does not. And this page is going to tell you exactly why — in the plain language a senior trial attorney would use sitting across your kitchen table, not…

Odessa Hit-and-Run Motorcycle Crash on Andrews Highway — Your Legal Rights After a Driver Flees the Scene If you found this page, someone you love may be in a hospital bed in Lubbock right now, and the person who put them there drove away. We are going to tell you everything we know about what happens next — not as a sales pitch, but as the straight legal truth from a trial team that has spent decades inside these cases. The crash happened at Andrews Highway and University on a Saturday night in March. A southbound Honda Civic turned left across a northbound Harley-Davidson, failed to yield, and then ran. The rider — a 65-year-old man — is now fighting for his life at a trauma center hours from home. The driver and a second person have been arrested. That is the surface. Beneath it is a case that is stronger, and more urgent, than most people realize. Here is why, and here is what to do about it. What Happened at Andrews Highway and University on March 14, 2026 Andrews Highway is the spine of Odessa’s commercial corridor — a north-south arterial lined with retail, restaurants, and the heavy…

Midland Pedestrian Killed in Hit-and-Run on Midland Drive: Your Family’s Legal Rights After a Fatal Crash If your family is reading this, a 67-year-old man you love is gone. He was crossing Midland Drive on a Tuesday evening — an ordinary act in the town where he lived — and a vehicle struck him and kept going. By the time officers arrived at the intersection of Midland Drive and Dengar Avenue, he was deceased in the northbound lanes. The driver and a passenger fled on foot. Hours later, a 23-year-old man was found at a nearby apartment and admitted to police that he was behind the wheel and that he left the scene without stopping to help. We are not going to pretend that words on a screen can fix what happened. What we can do — and what this page does — is tell you exactly what your family’s legal rights are, what evidence is disappearing while you grieve, what the insurance company is already doing, and what a civil wrongful death case looks like in Midland County, Texas. The criminal arrest gives you accountability. It does not give you compensation. Those are two separate fights, and the civil…

Midland Head-On Collision on Andrews Highway: What Victims and Families Need to Know Now If you are reading this, someone you love was trapped inside a vehicle on Andrews Highway while Midland firefighters spent twenty minutes cutting them out. You may be sitting in a hospital waiting room right now, or you may be at a kitchen table at two in the morning with a folder of bills you do not understand yet. Either way, the same clock is running — and it is not on your side. On Monday, April 7, 2026, the Midland Fire Department responded to a head-on collision on Andrews Highway involving two vehicles. One person was pinned inside a vehicle. Firefighters worked for approximately twenty minutes to extricate that person. Public reporting does not yet identify either driver, specify the cause of the collision, or detail the injuries the extricated person sustained. But the severity of the mechanism — a head-on impact with entrapment sufficient to require extended extrication — tells those of us who build these cases exactly what we are looking at: a high-energy collision with significant injury potential. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC, and this page is written…

What Happened on Andrews Highway in Odessa — and What It Means for Your Family You are reading this because someone you love was on Andrews Highway on a Thursday evening in Odessa, and a pickup truck driven by a man who should never have been behind the wheel changed everything in the seconds it took for four vehicles to collide at the intersection of Yukon. The Odessa Police Department charged the driver of that Dodge Ram with intoxication assault — a third-degree felony under Texas law — which means investigators already concluded that his impairment caused serious bodily injury to another person. That charge is not your civil case. But it is the strongest piece of evidence your civil case will ever have, and the insurance company knows it. We are Attorney911 — Legal Emergency Lawyers. We handle drunk-driving injury cases in Texas. And the first thing you need to understand is this: the proof that this crash was his fault is already being gathered by the police and the Ector County prosecutor — but the proof that could make your family’s case worth what it should be worth is disappearing, right now, on a clock you cannot see.…

The Crash on FM 1788: Nine Lives Lost in a Fiery Head-On Collision If you are reading this because someone you love was in that van — a son or daughter on the golf team, a coach you trusted, a friend who was supposed to come home from a tournament — we are not going to begin with the legal analysis. We are going to begin with what we know happened, because you deserve to hear it stated plainly, by someone who has spent a career sitting across kitchen tables from families who lost everything in a single moment on a West Texas highway. On March 15, 2022, a Dodge pickup truck crossed the centerline on Farm-to-Market Road 1788 in Andrews County, Texas, and collided head-on with a Ford Transit van carrying members of the University of the Southwest golf team. The team was returning home to Hobbs, New Mexico, from a tournament at Midland College. Both vehicles burst into flames. Nine people died — six student-athletes, the coach who was driving the van, the pickup’s driver, and his 13-year-old son who was riding as a passenger. Two students survived with serious injuries. The road, the fire, the speed, the…

Ector County Fatal Crash: Two Lives Lost at West 16th Street and Tripp Avenue If you are reading this, someone you love is gone. Maybe you got the call before sunrise. Maybe you are sitting in a kitchen in Odessa, or in a home across the border in Mexico, trying to understand how a morning that started like any other ended with two names on a crash report and a silence that will not fill back in. We are going to tell you everything we know about what happened, what your family’s rights are under Texas law, and what is disappearing — right now, while you read — that you need to save before it is gone. At approximately 5:10 a.m. on May 23, 2026, a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck was traveling south on Tripp Avenue in Ector County, approaching the intersection of West 16th Street. A Volkswagen Polo was traveling west on West 16th Street, heading toward that same intersection. The Silverado entered the intersection without stopping. It struck the right side of the Polo. The impact was violent enough to propel both vehicles off the road and into the southwest corner of the intersection, where they crashed…

A Drunk Driver With Three Prior DWI Convictions Ran a Red Light in Odessa — and a Motorcyclist Is Fighting for His Life in Lubbock If you are reading this from a hospital hallway in Lubbock, or from a kitchen table in Odessa where the phone just rang with news no family is ready to hear, we want you to understand one thing before anything else: what happened to your motorcyclist at 2:04 a.m. on August 9 at University Boulevard and Andrews Highway was not an accident. It was a choice — a choice made by a man who had already been convicted of driving drunk three times before, who got behind the wheel of a silver Jeep Commander again, who ran a red light in the commercial heart of Odessa, and who then ran away on foot while a 35-year-old man lay in the street with life-threatening injuries. The Odessa Police Department arrested him. He admitted to hitting the motorcycle. Officers determined he was drunk. They found nearly five ounces of marijuana in his possession. He was charged with Intoxication Assault Causing Serious Bodily Injury, Collision Involving Personal Injury, Possession of Marijuana, and Evading Arrest. He is in the…

Pecos, Texas Train-Truck Collision: What Happened and What Your Family Needs to Know If you are reading this because someone you love went to work on a Union Pacific railroad crew in West Texas and did not come home — or because you were inside a building in downtown Pecos when heavy equipment came through the wall — you are in a moment that no one prepared you for. Two railroad employees were killed. A train derailed. A tractor-trailer sat on the tracks for approximately one minute before the collision, and the National Transportation Safety Board is trying to determine why. You have probably already heard from someone representing a railroad interest or an insurance company. You may have been asked to give a statement. You may have been told that workers’ compensation or railroad death benefits are your only option. They are not. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle commercial-vehicle and wrongful-death cases in Texas. This page is written for you: the family of a killed railroad employee, the person who was inside the Pecos Chamber of Commerce building when the collision sent heavy equipment through the structure, or the friend who is trying…
