Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Accidents in Kimble County, Texas You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from a road that every family in Kimble County drives every day. Maybe it was US Highway 377 between Junction and Brady, where the morning sun glares off the windshield of a fully loaded tractor-trailer running empty cattle trailers back to the feedlot. Maybe it was FM 2169 near the Llano River crossing, where an oilfield water hauler misjudged the curve and left the roadway at 55 mph. Maybe it was the stretch of I-10 between Sonora and Ozona, where crosswinds from the Edwards Plateau can push an 80,000-pound rig into the next lane without warning. The carrier whose driver failed to control that rig has lawyers who started working the night of the crash. The two-year clock under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003 started the moment the collision happened—whether or not you’ve had time to grieve, whether or not the police report is finalized, whether or not the insurance adjuster is returning your calls. We’ve represented trucking accident victims in Texas since 1998. Ralph Manginello has been admitted to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Kerr County, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home. A fully loaded 18-wheeler—maybe a long-haul freightliner, an oilfield service truck, or a last-mile delivery vehicle—changed everything on a road most people in Kerr County drive every day without thinking. The Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS) recorded 4,150 traffic fatalities in Texas in 2024—one death every 2 hours and 7 minutes, with zero deathless days. When the crash involves an 80,000-pound commercial vehicle, the physics leave little room for survival. If you’re in Kerr County, the odds are the wreck happened on Interstate 10, U.S. Highway 290, or one of the state highways that carry heavy freight through the Hill Country and into the Permian Basin. We’ve handled hundreds of these cases. We know what happens in the first 48 hours, the first 30 days, and the years that follow. Texas law gives you a two-year window from the date of the fatal injury to file a wrongful-death claim under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 71.001, but the carrier’s lawyers started working the night of the crash. The longer you…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Kent County, Texas: A Legal Guide for Families You are reading this because someone you love did not come home from a stretch of road most people in Kent County drive every day without thinking. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 380, where the long-haul freight from Lubbock to Fort Worth meets the local traffic from Jayton and Clairemont. Maybe it was Farm-to-Market Road 1081, where the oilfield service trucks running between Snyder and Rotan share the two-lane blacktop with pickup trucks and cattle haulers. Wherever it happened, the crash that took your father, your wife, your son, or your daughter was not an accident—it was a preventable tragedy caused by a commercial carrier that ignored federal safety rules, hired an unqualified driver, or dispatched a truck with known mechanical problems. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003 has already started a two-year clock on your family. Not from the funeral. Not from when the autopsy report came back. Not from when the insurance adjuster finally returned your call. From the day of the crash. Under Section 71.001, you—whether you are the surviving spouse, child, or parent—hold an independent wrongful-death claim. Under Section 71.021,…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Kenedy County, Texas: Your Legal Rights and Next Steps You are reading this because someone you love did not come home from a road that everyone in Kenedy County drives every day. The stretch of U.S. Highway 77 that runs through Sarita, the FM 771 corridor that connects to Riviera, or the State Highway 285 route that carries oilfield traffic—these are not just roads. They are the arteries of Kenedy County’s economy, moving cattle, oilfield equipment, and commercial freight between the Gulf Coast and the Permian Basin. When an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer crashes on one of these corridors, the physics of the impact leave no time for the driver of a passenger vehicle to react. A semi-truck collision at highway speeds is not a fender-bender—it is a closing-speed event that frequently produces fatalities, catastrophic injuries, and lifelong devastation for families. Texas law gives you a narrow window to act. Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003, you have exactly two years from the date of the fatal injury to file a wrongful-death lawsuit. The clock does not stop for grief, for funeral arrangements, or for the carrier’s insurance adjuster to return your calls.…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Kendall County, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from one of Kendall County’s roads. Maybe it was on I-10 near Boerne, where long-haul trucks move between San Antonio and the Hill Country. Maybe it was on FM 473, where oilfield service vehicles run between drilling sites. Or maybe it was on one of the county’s rural farm-to-market roads, where a fully loaded tractor-trailer met a family car at an intersection with no traffic signals. The crash happened. The truck was there. Now there are funeral arrangements no one planned to make, medical bills no one expected, and an insurance company calling from a call center in another state whose only job is to close the file for the lowest number Texas law allows. We’ve represented families in Kendall County and across Texas in these cases for more than 24 years. We know what happens next. The carrier’s lawyers start working the case the night of the wreck. The evidence that could prove what really happened—the electronic logging device, the dashcam footage, the maintenance records—starts disappearing. The two-year clock under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Kaufman County, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from a road you’ve driven a thousand times. Kaufman County’s highways—Interstate 20, U.S. Highway 175, State Highway 34—carry some of the heaviest commercial traffic in North Texas. When an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer loses control on these corridors, the physics don’t leave time for the driver of a passenger vehicle to react. A crash at those weights isn’t a fender-bender—it’s a closing-speed event that frequently produces fatalities and catastrophic injuries. Whether you call it a semi, a tractor-trailer, or an eighteen-wheeler, the legal exposure of the motor carrier under Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations is identical, and the depth of investigation required to prove how the crash actually happened is the same. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003 started a two-year clock on your family the day of the crash—not the day of the funeral, not the day the autopsy report was finalized, not the day the police report was complete. Under Section 71.001, you—whether you’re the surviving spouse, child, or parent—hold an independent wrongful-death claim. Your loved one’s estate holds a separate survival action under…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Karnes County, Texas: What Families Need to Know After a Tragedy You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from a road most people in Karnes County drive every day. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 181 on the way to Kenedy, or FM 792 near Runge, or the stretch of I-37 that cuts through the county on its way to Corpus Christi. Wherever it happened, an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer changed everything for your family in an instant. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003 has already started a clock that doesn’t stop while you grieve.

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Jones County, Texas: What Families Need to Know After a Tragedy You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home. Maybe it was your spouse, returning from an overnight haul on US-180 or SH-6—two of the busiest freight corridors cutting through Jones County. Maybe it was your child, crossing FM 600 near Anson or Hamlin, where school bus routes intersect with oilfield service trucks and long-haul semis. Or maybe it was your parent, driving home from work on I-20, where the stretch between Abilene and Sweetwater sees some of the highest commercial vehicle traffic in West Texas. The crash happened. The truck was there. Now, the phone calls won’t stop—the adjuster from a Dallas call center, the medical bills, the funeral arrangements no one was prepared to make. And beneath it all, the quiet dread: What happens now? Texas law gives you a framework to hold the trucking company accountable. But the clock is already running.

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Johnson County, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from a road that everyone in Johnson County drives every day. Interstate 35W cuts through Cleburne, carrying everything from Amazon delivery trucks to oilfield equipment between Fort Worth and Waco.

The Johnson County District Court in Cleburne handles the civil filings, while the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas covers federal claims.
