Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Travis County, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home. A fully loaded 18-wheeler—80,000 pounds of steel, diesel, and momentum—changed everything on a road most people in Travis County drive every day without thinking. Maybe it was Interstate 35 cutting through Austin, where long-haul trucks mix with commuter traffic during the morning rush. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 183, where Amazon delivery vans, Sysco foodservice trucks, and oilfield water haulers share lanes with families heading to work and school. Or maybe it was one of the smaller state highways—FM 969, FM 973, or SH 130—where commercial traffic moves between distribution centers, construction sites, and the Hill Country. The crash happened. The truck was there. Now the medical bills are arriving, the insurance adjuster is calling from a Dallas call center, and the carrier’s lawyers have already started working—while you’re still trying to understand what happened. We don’t let families face this alone. For 27+ years, we’ve represented Travis County families in catastrophic trucking cases. We’ve seen what happens when a carrier ignores its own safety records, when a driver falsifies logs, when a broker dispatches a…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in San Angelo, Texas: What Families Need to Know You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home. The stretch of U.S. Highway 67 between San Angelo and Big Spring—where the speed limit jumps to 75 mph and the oilfield service trucks run day and night—took your father, your wife, your son, your sister. The carrier whose driver caused the crash has lawyers who started working the case the night it happened. The clock Texas law gives you to file a wrongful-death action under Section 16.003 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code began ticking the moment the impact occurred, not when the funeral was over, not when the police report was finalized, not when you felt ready to think about a lawyer. We handle these cases every day in the Permian Basin and the Concho Valley. We know what the carrier’s adjusters will say in the first call, what the defense lawyers will file in the first motion, and what the jury in Tom Green County District Court will be asked to decide under the Texas Pattern Jury Charge. We also know what the carrier hopes you’ll never learn: that the driver’s qualification…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Titus County, Texas You’re reading this because someone you love didn’t come home from a road most people in Titus County drive every day without thinking about it. Maybe it was the stretch of U.S. Highway 271 where the morning fog never seems to lift, or the FM 127 where oilfield trucks move between well sites before sunrise. Maybe it was the intersection of State Highway 11 and FM 21 where the stoplight hangs over the road like a warning no one heeds until it’s too late. The eighteen-wheeler that changed everything for your family was there because Titus County’s economy runs on trucks—oilfield service rigs, water haulers, sand trucks, and the long-haul freight moving between the Permian Basin and the Gulf Coast refineries. The carrier behind that truck has lawyers who started working the case the night of the crash. The evidence they control—the electronic logging device, the dashcam footage, the maintenance records, the driver’s qualification file—is disappearing right now. We don’t let that happen. The Reality of an 18-Wheeler Crash on Titus County’s Roads Titus County sits in the heart of Northeast Texas, where the terrain shifts from rolling pine forests to…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Throckmorton County, Texas You're reading this because someone you love didn't come home from a road most people in Throckmorton County drive without thinking about it. An eighty-thousand-pound tractor-trailer changed everything for your family on a corridor where long-haul freight, oilfield service trucks, and local traffic share the same pavement. The Texas Department of Transportation's Crash Records Information System (CRIS) recorded 4,150 traffic fatalities statewide in 2024—one death every two hours and seven minutes, zero deathless days—and Throckmorton County's position along U.S. Highway 183 and U.S. Highway 283 places it squarely in the documented pattern of rural Texas commercial-vehicle fatalities. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003 has already started a clock that doesn't stop while you grieve. You have two years from the date of the fatal injury to file a wrongful-death action under Section 71.001.

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Terrell County, Texas You are reading this because someone you love did not come home from a stretch of road most people in Terrell County drive every day without thinking about it. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 90, where the long-haul freight from San Antonio to El Paso passes through Sanderson and Dryden, carrying everything from produce to petroleum. Maybe it was State Highway 349, where the oilfield service trucks running between the Permian Basin and the Eagle Ford Shale create a steady stream of commercial traffic through this quiet corner of West Texas. Or maybe it was Farm-to-Market Road 2400, where the agricultural haulers moving cattle, cotton, and feed between local ranches and processing facilities share the road with passenger vehicles. Wherever it happened, the reality is the same: an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer traveling at highway speed collided with the vehicle your family was in, and the physics of that impact left no time for anyone to react.

Maybe it was Interstate 20 between Abilene and Sweetwater, where long-haul freight mixes with oilfield service trucks running between the Permian Basin and the Barnett Shale. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 83/84 through Taylor County, where grain haulers and livestock transporters share lanes with commuters heading to Dyess Air Force Base. Maybe it was FM 707 or FM 89, where a fully loaded tractor-trailer lost control on a curve that locals know but out-of-town drivers don’t.

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Tarrant County: 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. Interstate 30, Interstate 20, State Highway 360, the President George Bush Turnpike – these aren’t just lines on a map in Tarrant County. They’re the freight corridors that carry the trucks keeping North Texas running, and when an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer loses control at highway speed, the physics don’t care about your family’s plans for tomorrow. The Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System recorded 28,074 crashes in Tarrant County last year – one every 19 minutes. Of those, 149 were fatal, and commercial vehicles were involved in a disproportionate share. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s Safety Measurement System shows that the carriers running these corridors through Fort Worth, Arlington, and the surrounding suburbs carry some of the highest crash indicator scores in the state. When the crash that took your loved one happened, the carrier’s safety department already knew the pattern. Now you’re learning it too. We’ve represented Tarrant County families in these cases since 1998. Ralph Manginello has been in federal courtrooms across Texas, including the…

Fatal 18-Wheeler and Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Swisher 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 Swisher County drives every day. Maybe it was U.S. Highway 87 between Tulia and Happy, where grain trucks and cattle haulers share the two-lane blacktop with farm equipment moving between fields. Maybe it was the intersection of Farm-to-Market Road 146 and State Highway 86, where the morning sun glare makes it hard to see the stop sign even when you know it’s there. Or maybe it was on one of the county’s rural roads where a fully loaded tractor-trailer running empty back to the elevator in Kress met a pickup truck whose driver never saw the truck’s brake lights in the dust kicked up by the wind. Whatever the road, whatever the time of day, the physics are the same: an 80,000-pound commercial vehicle at highway speed doesn’t stop when a passenger car stops. The Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS) recorded 121 fatal crashes involving commercial vehicles on rural farm-to-market roads in 2024 alone—roads just like the ones that crisscross Swisher County.

Fatal 18-Wheeler & Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Sonora, Texas: What Families Need to Know After a Devastating Loss You are reading this because someone you love did not come home from a road that everyone in Sonora, Texas, has driven a thousand times. Interstate 10 carries more freight through Sutton County before sunrise than the rest of the day combined, and the carriers running it count on the corridor’s familiarity to mask what the data shows about fatal-crash density on the stretch through your county. When an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer loses control at highway speed—whether from brake failure, driver fatigue, or a moment of inattention—the physics leave no time for the family in the passenger vehicle to react. A crash at those weights is not a fender-bender. It is a closing-speed event that frequently produces fatalities, catastrophic injuries, and a years-long fight for accountability. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003 has already started a clock that does not stop while you grieve. You have two years from the date of the fatal injury—not the funeral, not the autopsy report, not the day the police report is finalized—to file a wrongful-death action under § 71.001. Under § 71.004, you—as the surviving…
