Why Hurst Trucking Accidents Are Different

Hurst sits at the crossroads of some of Texas’s busiest freight corridors. The intersection of I-820 and Highway 121 sees heavy commercial traffic daily, with trucks traveling between Fort Worth, Dallas, and the Alliance Global Logistics Hub. This high volume of truck traffic creates unique risks for Hurst residents:

I-820 Corridor: Connects major distribution centers and serves as a bypass for I-35 traffic
Highway 121: Links DFW Airport to Fort Worth, creating heavy commuter and commercial traffic
Alliance Airport Area: One of the nation’s largest industrial air cargo facilities generates significant truck traffic
Local Distribution Centers: Numerous warehouses and logistics facilities in Hurst and nearby cities

The Hurst Police Department and Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office respond to hundreds of commercial vehicle accidents annually. These crashes often result in catastrophic injuries due to the massive size and weight disparity between 18-wheelers and passenger vehicles.

The Devastating Reality of 18-Wheeler Accidents

When a fully loaded commercial truck weighing up to 80,000 pounds collides with a passenger vehicle, the results are often catastrophic. The physics are simple but brutal:

A Hurst family sedan weighs approximately 3,500 pounds
An 18-wheeler can weigh 22 times more
At highway speeds, the truck carries 80 times the kinetic energy of a car
Stopping distance for a truck at 65 mph: 525 feet (nearly two football fields)

This massive energy transfer explains why trucking accidents in Hurst so often result in:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
Amputations
Severe burns from fuel fires
Internal organ damage
Wrongful death

“Your life changed in an instant. The trucking company wants to pay as little as possible.”
— Ralph Manginello, Managing Partner

Common Types of 18-Wheeler Accidents in Hurst

Our Hurst trucking accident attorneys have handled every type of commercial vehicle collision. The most common accident types we see in Tarrant County include:

1. Jackknife Accidents on I-820 and Highway 121

Jackknife accidents occur when the trailer swings out perpendicular to the cab, often blocking multiple lanes of traffic. These terrifying crashes frequently happen on Hurst highways when:

Drivers brake suddenly on wet or icy roads
Empty trailers are more prone to swinging
Improperly loaded cargo shifts during transit
Brake systems fail or are improperly maintained

The I-820 corridor near the Northeast Mall area is particularly susceptible to jackknife accidents during rush hour traffic.

2. Underride Collisions: The Silent Killer

Underride accidents are among the most deadly trucking accidents. They occur when a passenger vehicle slides underneath the trailer of an 18-wheeler. The trailer’s height often shears off the top of the smaller vehicle, resulting in decapitation or catastrophic head injuries.

Two Types of Underride Accidents:

Rear Underride: When a vehicle strikes the back of a stopped or slowly moving truck
Side Underride: When a vehicle strikes the side of a truck during lane changes or turns

Federal law requires rear impact guards on trailers, but these guards often fail during crashes. Side underride guards are not required by federal law, despite safety advocates’ calls for their implementation.

“Nearly 400 people die in underride accidents every year in the United States.”
— Insurance Institute for Highway Safety

3. Tire Blowout Accidents on Hurst Highways

Texas’s extreme heat and long highway stretches make tire blowouts a common hazard. When a truck tire fails at highway speeds:

The driver may lose control of the vehicle
Debris from the blown tire can strike other vehicles
The truck may swerve into adjacent lanes

Hurst’s location in the heart of North Texas means our highways see some of the heaviest truck traffic in the state. The combination of heat, long distances, and heavy loads makes tire blowouts a significant risk.

4. Rollover Accidents at Hurst Interchanges

Rollover accidents occur when a truck tips onto its side or roof. These crashes are particularly common at:

The I-820/Highway 121 interchange
Sharp curves on highway ramps
Areas with uneven pavement or poor drainage

Contributing factors include:

Speeding on curves
Improperly secured or unevenly distributed cargo
Liquid cargo that shifts during transit
Driver fatigue causing delayed reactions
Poor road conditions

5. Blind Spot Accidents: The “No-Zone” Danger

Commercial trucks have massive blind spots, known as “No-Zones,” where the driver cannot see other vehicles. These blind spots exist:

Directly in front of the cab (20 feet)
Directly behind the trailer (30 feet)
Along both sides of the trailer (especially the right side)

Many Hurst trucking accidents occur when cars linger in these blind spots during lane changes or when trucks make wide right turns.

6. Rear-End Collisions on Hurst’s Congested Highways

Rear-end collisions are common on Hurst’s busy highways, especially during rush hour. Trucks require significantly more stopping distance than passenger vehicles:

Car at 65 mph: ~300 feet to stop
18-wheeler at 65 mph: ~525 feet to stop

When trucks follow too closely or fail to anticipate traffic slowdowns, devastating rear-end collisions occur. These crashes often result in whiplash, spinal injuries, and traumatic brain injuries for occupants of the struck vehicle.

7. Wide Turn Accidents: The “Squeeze Play”

Trucks making right turns often swing wide to the left before turning right. This creates a dangerous gap that other vehicles may enter, only to be crushed when the truck completes its turn.

These “squeeze play” accidents are common in Hurst at intersections like:

Precinct Line Road and Pipeline Road
Denton Highway and Pipeline Road
Highway 121 and Precinct Line Road

8. Brake Failure Accidents on Hurst’s Hilly Terrain

Brake failures are a leading cause of trucking accidents, especially on hilly terrain. Common causes include:

Worn brake pads not replaced
Improper brake adjustments
Air brake system leaks
Overheated brakes on long descents
Contaminated brake fluid
Defective brake components

The hilly areas of Hurst, particularly near the Trinity River basin, create challenging driving conditions for large trucks.

9. Cargo Spill Accidents: Hazardous Materials on Hurst Roads

Improperly secured cargo can fall from trucks, creating road hazards. In some cases, hazardous materials spill, creating additional dangers:

Flammable liquids causing fires
Toxic chemicals creating respiratory hazards
Debris causing secondary collisions
Heavy objects crushing vehicles

Hurst’s proximity to major distribution centers means our roads see significant cargo traffic, increasing the risk of these dangerous incidents.

Who Is Liable for Your Hurst Trucking Accident?

Unlike typical car accidents where only one driver may be at fault, trucking accidents often involve multiple liable parties. At Attorney911, we investigate every potential defendant to maximize your recovery.

1. The Truck Driver

The driver may be personally liable for:

Speeding or reckless driving
Distracted driving (cell phone use, texting, GPS)
Fatigued driving beyond legal limits
Impaired driving (drugs, alcohol, prescription medications)
Failure to conduct proper pre-trip inspections
Violation of traffic laws

2. The Trucking Company (Motor Carrier)

The trucking company is often the most important defendant because they have the deepest pockets and highest insurance limits. They may be liable for:

Vicarious Liability:

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

Direct Negligence:

Negligent Hiring: Failed to check the driver’s background, driving record, or qualifications
Negligent Training: Inadequate training on safety, cargo securement, hours of service
Negligent Supervision: Failed to monitor driver performance and compliance
Negligent Maintenance: Failed to maintain vehicles in safe condition
Negligent Scheduling: Pressured drivers to violate hours of service regulations

“Our firm includes Lupe Peña, a former insurance defense attorney who knows exactly how trucking companies minimize claims—and now he uses that knowledge to fight for you.”
— Attorney911

3. Cargo Owner/Shipper

The company that owns the cargo may be liable for:

Providing improper loading instructions
Failing to disclose hazardous nature of cargo

The ECM/Black Box: Your Case’s Silent Witness

Commercial trucks have sophisticated electronic systems that continuously record operational data. This data is objective and tamper-resistant, making it some of the most powerful evidence in trucking cases.

Types of Electronic Recording Systems:

System	What It Records
ECM (Engine Control Module)	Engine performance, speed, throttle, RPM, cruise control, fault codes
EDR (Event Data Recorder)	Pre-crash data triggered by sudden deceleration or airbag deployment
ELD (Electronic Logging Device)	Driver hours, duty status, GPS location, driving time
Telematics	Real-time GPS tracking, speed, route, driver behavior
Dashcam	Video of road ahead, some record cab interior

Critical Data Points We Recover:

Speed Before Crash: Proves speeding or excessive speed for conditions
Brake Application: Shows when and how hard brakes were applied
Throttle Position: Reveals if driver was accelerating or coasting
Following Distance: Calculated from speed and deceleration data
Hours of Service: Proves fatigue and HOS violations
GPS Location: Confirms route and timing
Fault Codes: May reveal known mechanical issues driver ignored

“Black box data can be overwritten in 30 days. We send preservation letters immediately to protect this critical evidence.”
— Lupe Peña, Associate Attorney

FMCSA Record Retention Requirements

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration requires minimum retention periods for various records:

Record Type	Retention Period
Driver Qualification Files	3 years after termination
Hours of Service Records	6 months
Vehicle Inspection Reports	1 year
Maintenance Records	1 year
Accident Register	3 years
Drug Test Records (positive)	5 years
Drug Test Records (negative)	1 year

Why Our Spoliation Letter Extends These Periods:

Once we send a preservation demand and litigation is anticipated, the duty to preserve extends beyond these minimum periods. Destroying evidence after receiving our letter can result in:

Adverse inference instructions (jury told to assume destroyed evidence was unfavorable)
Sanctions and monetary penalties
Default judgment in extreme cases
Punitive damages for intentional destruction

FMCSA Regulations: The Legal Framework for Your Hurst Trucking Case

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates all commercial motor vehicles operating in interstate commerce. These regulations are codified in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (49 CFR), Parts 300-399.

Why FMCSA Regulations Matter for Your Case:

Every 18-wheeler on Hurst’s highways must comply with these federal regulations. When trucking companies and drivers violate these rules, they create dangerous conditions that cause catastrophic accidents. Proving FMCSA violations is often the key to establishing negligence and securing maximum compensation.

The 6 Critical Parts of FMCSA Regulations

Part	Title	What It Covers
Part 390	General Applicability	Definitions, who regulations apply to
Part 391	Driver Qualification	Who can drive, medical requirements, training
Part 392	Driving Rules	Safe operation, fatigue, drugs, alcohol
Part 393	Vehicle Safety	Equipment, cargo securement, brakes, lights
Part 395	Hours of Service	How long drivers can drive, required rest
Part 396	Inspection & Maintenance	Vehicle upkeep, inspections, records

Part 391: Driver Qualification Standards

Purpose: Establishes who is qualified to drive a commercial motor vehicle.

MINIMUM DRIVER QUALIFICATIONS (49 CFR § 391.11):

A person shall not drive a commercial motor vehicle unless they:

Are at least 21 years old (interstate) or 18 years old (intrastate)
Can read and speak English sufficiently
Can safely operate the CMV and cargo type
Are physically qualified under § 391.41
Have a valid commercial motor vehicle operator’s license (CDL)
Have completed a driver’s road test or equivalent
Are not disqualified under § 391.15 (violations, suspensions)

Road Test Certificate	Or equivalent documentation
Medical Examiner’s Certificate	Current, valid (max 2 years)
Annual Driving Record Review	Must be conducted and documented
Previous Employer Inquiries	3-year driving history investigation
Drug & Alcohol Test Records	Pre-employment and random testing

Why This Matters for Your Hurst Case:

If the trucking company failed to maintain a proper DQ file, failed to check the driver’s background, or hired a driver with a poor safety record, they can be held liable for negligent hiring. We subpoena these records in every Hurst trucking case.

PHYSICAL QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS (49 CFR § 391.41):

Drivers must be medically qualified to operate CMVs. Key requirements include:

No loss of foot, leg, hand, or arm (without exemption)
No established medical history of epilepsy or seizures
No mental, nervous, or psychiatric disorder likely to interfere with safe driving
No current clinical diagnosis of alcoholism
No use of Schedule I controlled substances

Vision of at least 20/40 in each eye (with or without correction)
Hearing adequate to perceive forced whisper at 5 feet

Part 392: Driving of Commercial Motor Vehicles

Purpose: Establishes rules for the safe operation of CMVs.

ILL OR FATIGUED OPERATORS (49 CFR § 392.3):

“No driver shall operate a commercial motor vehicle, and a motor carrier shall not require or permit a driver to operate a commercial motor vehicle, while the driver’s ability or alertness is so impaired, or so likely to become impaired, through fatigue, illness, or any other cause, as to make it unsafe for him/her to begin or continue to operate the commercial motor vehicle.”

Why This Matters: This regulation makes BOTH the driver AND the trucking company liable when a fatigued driver causes an accident in Hurst.

DRUGS AND OTHER SUBSTANCES (49 CFR § 392.4):

A driver shall not be on duty or operate a CMV while:

Under the influence of any Schedule I substance
Under the influence of an amphetamine, narcotic, or any substance that renders them incapable of safe driving

Use alcohol within 4 hours before going on duty or operating a CMV
Use alcohol while on duty or operating a CMV
Be under the influence of alcohol (.04 BAC or higher) while on duty
Possess any alcohol while on duty (with limited exceptions)

SPEEDING (49 CFR § 392.6):

“No motor carrier shall schedule a run, nor shall any such carrier permit or require the operation of any commercial motor vehicle, between points in such period of time as would require the commercial motor vehicle to be operated at speeds in excess of those prescribed by the jurisdictions in or through which the commercial motor vehicle is being operated.”

FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY (49 CFR § 392.11):

“The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed of such vehicle and the traffic upon, and conditions of, the highway.”

MOBILE PHONE USE (49 CFR § 392.82):

General Requirements (§ 393.100):
Cargo must be contained, immobilized, or secured to prevent:

Leaking, spilling, blowing, or falling from the vehicle
Shifting that affects vehicle stability or maneuverability
Blocking the driver’s view or interfering with operation

Performance Criteria (§ 393.102):
Cargo securement systems must withstand:

Forward: 0.8 g deceleration (sudden stop)
Rearward: 0.5 g acceleration
Lateral: 0.5 g (side-to-side)
Downward: At least 20% of cargo weight if not fully contained

Tiedown Requirements:

Aggregate working load limit must be at least 50% of cargo weight for loose cargo
At least one tiedown for cargo 5 feet or less in length
At least two tiedowns for cargo over 5 feet or under 1,100 lbs
Additional tiedowns for every 10 feet of cargo length

BRAKES (49 CFR § 393.40-55):

All CMVs must have properly functioning brake systems:

Service brakes on all wheels

LIGHTING (49 CFR § 393.11-26):

Required lighting includes:

Headlamps, tail lamps, stop lamps
Clearance and side marker lamps
Reflectors and retroreflective sheeting
Turn signal lamps

Why This Matters: Violations of cargo securement cause rollover, jackknife, and spill accidents in Hurst. Brake failures cause rear-end collisions. We investigate every vehicle system when building your case.

Part 395: Hours of Service (HOS) Regulations

Purpose: Prevents driver fatigue by limiting driving time and requiring rest.

THESE ARE THE MOST COMMONLY VIOLATED REGULATIONS IN HURST TRUCKING ACCIDENTS.

PROPERTY-CARRYING DRIVERS (Most 18-Wheelers):

Rule	Requirement	Violation Consequence
11-Hour Driving Limit	Cannot drive more than 11 hours after 10 consecutive hours off duty	Fatigue-related accidents
14-Hour Duty Window	Cannot drive beyond 14th consecutive hour after coming on duty	Driver exhaustion
30-Minute Break	Must take 30-minute break after 8 cumulative hours of driving	Impaired alertness
60/70-Hour Limit	Cannot drive after 60 hours in 7 days or 70 hours in 8 days	Cumulative fatigue
34-Hour Restart	Can restart 60/70-hour clock with 34 consecutive hours off	Inadequate recovery
10-Hour Off-Duty	Must have minimum 10 consecutive hours off duty before driving	Insufficient rest

SLEEPER BERTH PROVISION (49 CFR § 395.1(g)):

Drivers using sleeper berth may split 10-hour off-duty period:

At least 7 consecutive hours in sleeper berth
Plus at least 2 consecutive hours off-duty (in berth or otherwise)
Neither period counts against 14-hour window

ELECTRONIC LOGGING DEVICE (ELD) MANDATE (49 CFR § 395.8):

Since December 18, 2017, most CMV drivers must use ELDs that:

Automatically record driving time
Synchronize with vehicle engine to record objective data
Cannot be altered after the fact (unlike paper logs)
Record GPS location, speed, engine hours

Why ELD Data Is Critical Evidence in Hurst Cases:

ELDs prove:

Exactly how long the driver was on duty
Whether breaks were taken as required
Speed before and during the accident
GPS location history
Any HOS violations

WE SEND SPOLIATION LETTERS IMMEDIATELY TO PRESERVE THIS DATA.

Part 396: Inspection, Repair, and Maintenance

Purpose: Ensures CMVs are maintained in safe operating condition.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENT (§ 396.3):

“Every motor carrier and intermodal equipment provider must systematically inspect, repair, and maintain, or cause to be systematically inspected, repaired, and maintained, all motor vehicles and intermodal equipment subject to its control.”

DRIVER INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS:

Pre-Trip Inspection (§ 396.13):
Before driving, drivers must be satisfied the CMV is in safe operating condition. Must review last driver vehicle inspection report if defects were noted.

Post-Trip Report (§ 396.11):
After each day’s driving, drivers must prepare written report on vehicle condition covering at minimum:

Service brakes
Parking brake
Steering mechanism
Lighting devices and reflectors
Tires
Horn
Windshield wipers
Rear vision mirrors
Coupling devices
Wheels and rims
Emergency equipment

ANNUAL INSPECTION (§ 396.17):

Every CMV must pass a comprehensive annual inspection covering 16+ systems. Inspection decal must be displayed. Records must be retained for 14 months.

MAINTENANCE RECORD RETENTION (§ 396.3):

Motor carriers must maintain records for each vehicle showing:

Identification (make, serial number, year, tire size)
Schedule for inspection, repair, and maintenance
Record of repairs and maintenance
Records must be retained for 1 year

Why This Matters for Your Hurst Case: Brake failures cause 29% of truck accidents. If the trucking company failed to maintain proper records or deferred maintenance, they are liable for negligence.

Catastrophic Injuries from Hurst 18-Wheeler Accidents

The physics of 18-wheeler accidents make catastrophic injuries the norm, not the exception, for Hurst residents.

1. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

What It Is:
TBI occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain. In 18-wheeler accidents, the extreme forces cause the brain to impact the inside of the skull.

Severity Levels:

Level	Symptoms	Prognosis
Mild (Concussion)	Confusion, headache, brief loss of consciousness	Usually recovers, but may have lasting effects
Moderate	Extended unconsciousness, memory problems, cognitive deficits	Significant recovery possible with rehabilitation
Severe	Extended coma, permanent cognitive impairment	Lifelong disability, may require 24/7 care

Common Symptoms:

Headaches and dizziness
Memory loss and confusion
Difficulty concentrating
Mood changes, depression, anxiety
Sleep disturbances
Sensory problems (vision, hearing, taste)
Speech difficulties
Personality changes

Long-Term Consequences:

Permanent cognitive impairment
Inability to work
Need for ongoing care and supervision
Increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s
Depression and emotional disorders

Lifetime Care Costs: $85,000 to $3,000,000+ depending on severity

2. Spinal Cord Injury and Paralysis

What It Is:
Damage to the spinal cord that disrupts communication between the brain and body, often resulting in paralysis.

Types of Paralysis:

Type	Definition	Impact
Paraplegia	Loss of function below the waist	Cannot walk, may affect bladder/bowel control
Quadriplegia	Loss of function in all four limbs	Cannot walk or use arms, may need breathing assistance
Incomplete Injury	Some nerve function remains	Variable – may have some sensation or movement
Complete Injury	No nerve function below injury	Total loss of sensation and movement

Level of Injury Matters:

Higher injuries (cervical spine) affect more body functions
C1-C4 injuries may require ventilator for breathing
Lower injuries (lumbar) affect legs but not arms

Lifetime Care Costs:

Paraplegia (low): $1.1 million+
Paraplegia (high): $2.5 million+
Quadriplegia (low): $3.5 million+
Quadriplegia (high): $5 million+

These figures represent direct medical costs only – not lost wages, pain and suffering, or loss of quality of life.

3. Amputation

Types of Amputation:

Traumatic Amputation: Limb severed at the scene due to crash forces
Surgical Amputation: Limb so severely damaged it must be surgically removed

Common in Hurst Trucking Accidents Due To:

Crushing forces from truck impact
Entrapment requiring amputation for extraction
Severe burns requiring surgical removal
Infections from open wounds

Ongoing Medical Needs:

Initial surgery and hospitalization
Prosthetic limbs ($5,000 – $50,000+ per prosthetic)
Replacement prosthetics throughout lifetime
Physical therapy and rehabilitation
Occupational therapy for daily living skills
Psychological counseling

Impact on Life:

Permanent disability
Career limitations or total disability
Phantom limb pain
Body image and psychological trauma
Need for home modifications
Dependency on others for daily activities

4. Severe Burns

How Burns Occur in Hurst Trucking Accidents:

Fuel tank rupture and fire
Hazmat cargo spills and ignition
Electrical fires from battery/wiring damage
Friction burns from road contact
Chemical burns from hazmat exposure

Burn Classification:

Degree	Depth	Treatment
First	Epidermis only	Minor, heals without scarring
Second	Epidermis and dermis	May scar, may need grafting
Third	Full thickness	Requires skin grafts, permanent scarring
Fourth	Through skin to muscle/bone	Multiple surgeries, amputation may be required

Long-Term Consequences:

Permanent scarring and disfigurement
Multiple reconstructive surgeries
Skin graft procedures
Chronic pain
Infection risks
Psychological trauma

5. Internal Organ Damage

Common Internal Injuries in Hurst Trucking Accidents:

Liver laceration or rupture
Spleen damage requiring removal
Kidney damage
Lung contusion or collapse (pneumothorax)
Internal bleeding (hemorrhage)
Bowel and intestinal damage

Why Dangerous:

May not show immediate symptoms
Internal bleeding can be life-threatening
Requires emergency surgery
Organ removal affects long-term health

6. Wrongful Death

When a Hurst Trucking Accident Kills:

Wrongful death claims allow surviving family members to recover compensation when a loved one is killed by another’s negligence.

Who Can Bring a Wrongful Death Claim in Texas:

Surviving spouse
Children (minor and adult)
Parents (especially if no spouse or children)
Estate representative

Types of Claims:

Wrongful Death Action: Compensation for survivors’ losses
Survival Action: Compensation for decedent’s pain/suffering before death

Damages Available in Texas Wrongful Death Cases:

Lost future income and benefits
Loss of consortium (companionship, care, guidance)
Mental anguish and emotional suffering
Funeral and burial expenses
Medical expenses before death
Pain and suffering experienced by decedent before death
Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence, recklessness, or malice)

Texas Statute of Limitations: 2 years from date of death to file wrongful death lawsuit

Commercial Truck Insurance: What’s Available for Your Hurst Case

Federal law requires commercial trucking companies to carry minimum liability insurance far exceeding typical auto policies.

FEDERAL MINIMUM LIABILITY LIMITS:

Cargo Type	Minimum Coverage
Non-Hazardous Freight (10,001+ lbs GVWR)	$750,000
Oil/Petroleum (10,001+ lbs GVWR)	$1,000,000
Large Equipment (10,001+ lbs GVWR)	$1,000,000
Hazardous Materials (All)	$5,000,000
Passengers (16+ passengers)	$5,000,000
Passengers (15 or fewer)	$1,500,000

Why This Matters For Your Hurst Case:

Unlike car accidents where insurance may be limited to $30,000-$100,000, trucking accidents typically have at least $750,000 available – and often much more. Many carriers carry $1-5 million or more in coverage.

This higher coverage means catastrophic injuries can actually be compensated, rather than leaving Hurst victims with unpaid medical bills.

Types of Damages Recoverable in Your Hurst Trucking Case

ECONOMIC DAMAGES (Calculable Losses)

Category	What’s Included
Medical Expenses	Past, present, and future medical costs
Lost Wages	Income lost due to injury and recovery
Lost Earning Capacity	Reduction in future earning ability
Property Damage	Vehicle repair or replacement
Out-of-Pocket Expenses	Transportation to medical appointments, home modifications

Nuclear Verdicts: What Juries Are Awarding in Trucking Cases

The trucking industry is experiencing unprecedented jury verdicts, with “nuclear verdicts” (those exceeding $10 million) becoming increasingly common.

RECENT MAJOR TRUCKING VERDICTS (2024-2025):

Amount	Year	Location	Case Details
$462 Million	2024	St. Louis, MO	Wabash National – two fatalities from underride collision
$160 Million	2024	Alabama	Daimler – quadriplegic injury from rollover
$141.5 Million	2024	Florida	Defunct carrier crash
$90 Million	—	Houston, TX	Truck driver burned in explosion
$37.5 Million	2024	Texas	Trucking verdict for catastrophic injuries
$35.5 Million	—	Texas	Family injured in truck accident
$35 Million	2025	Fort Worth, TX	Largest verdict in Tarrant County history

HISTORIC LANDMARK VERDICTS:

Amount	Year	Case Details
$1 Billion	2021	Florida – 18-year-old killed, $100M compensatory + $900M punitive for gross negligence in hiring
$411 Million	2020	Florida – 45-vehicle pileup, motorcyclist severely injured

Why Nuclear Verdicts Happen in Texas:

Juries award massive verdicts when they find:

Trucking company knowingly hired dangerous drivers
Company ignored safety violations for profit
Evidence was destroyed (spoliation)
Falsified hours-of-service logs
Pattern of similar violations
Corporate culture prioritizing profit over safety
Egregious disregard for human life

What This Means for Your Hurst Case:

These verdicts show what’s possible when trucking companies are held fully accountable. Insurance companies know juries are willing to award massive damages – which strengthens settlement negotiations for Hurst victims.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hurst Trucking Accidents

Immediate After-Accident Questions

What should I do immediately after an 18-wheeler accident in Hurst?

If you’ve been in a trucking accident in Hurst, take these steps immediately if you’re able:

Call 911 and report the accident
Seek medical attention, even if injuries seem minor
Document the scene with photos and video if possible
Get the trucking company name, DOT number, and driver information
Collect witness contact information
Do NOT give recorded statements to any insurance company
Call an 18-wheeler accident attorney immediately

Should I go to the hospital after a truck accident even if I feel okay?

YES. Adrenaline masks pain after traumatic accidents. Internal injuries, TBI, and spinal injuries may not show symptoms for hours or days. Hurst hospitals like Texas Health Harris Methodist Northeast and Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Grapevine can identify injuries that will become critical evidence in your case. Delaying treatment also gives insurance companies ammunition to deny your claim.

What information should I collect at the truck accident scene in Hurst?

Document everything possible:

Truck and trailer license plates
DOT number (on truck door)
Trucking company name and logo
Driver’s name, CDL number, and contact info
Photos of all vehicle damage
Photos of the accident scene, road conditions, skid marks
Photos of your injuries
Witness names and phone numbers
Responding officer’s name and badge number
Weather and road conditions

Should I talk to the trucking company’s insurance adjuster?

NO. Do not give any recorded statements. Insurance adjusters work for the trucking company, not you. Anything you say will be used to minimize your claim. Our firm includes a former insurance defense attorney who knows exactly how these adjusters are trained to protect the trucking company’s interests.

How quickly should I contact an 18-wheeler accident attorney in Hurst?

IMMEDIATELY – within 24-48 hours if possible. Critical evidence in trucking cases (black box data, ELD records, dashcam footage) can be destroyed or overwritten quickly. We send spoliation letters within hours of being retained to preserve this evidence before it’s lost forever.

What is a spoliation letter and why is it important?

A spoliation letter is a legal notice demanding that the trucking company preserve all evidence related to the accident. This includes ECM/black box data, ELD logs, maintenance records, driver files, and more. Sending this letter immediately puts the trucking company on notice that destroying evidence will result in serious legal consequences.

Trucking Company and Driver Questions

Who can I sue after an 18-wheeler accident in Hurst?

Multiple parties may be liable in Hurst trucking accidents:

The truck driver
The trucking company/motor carrier
The cargo owner or shipper
The company that loaded the cargo
Truck or parts manufacturers
Maintenance companies
Freight brokers
The truck owner (if different from carrier)
Government entities (for road defects)

We investigate every possible defendant to maximize your recovery.

Is the trucking company responsible even if the driver caused the accident?

Usually YES. Under the doctrine of respondeat superior, employers are liable for employees’ negligent acts within the scope of employment. Additionally, trucking companies can be directly liable for:

Negligent hiring (hiring unqualified drivers)
Negligent training (inadequate safety training)
Negligent supervision (failing to monitor driver behavior)
Negligent maintenance (poor vehicle upkeep)

What if the truck driver says the accident was my fault?

Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system. Even if you were partially at fault, you may still recover compensation. Our job is to investigate thoroughly, gather evidence (especially ECM and ELD data), and prove what really happened. Drivers often lie to protect their jobs – the data tells the true story.

What is an owner-operator and does that affect my case?

An owner-operator is a driver who owns their own truck and contracts with trucking companies. This can complicate liability, but both the owner-operator and the contracting company may be liable. We investigate all relationships and insurance policies to ensure you can recover from the responsible parties.

How do I find out if the trucking company has a bad safety record?

FMCSA maintains public safety data at safer.fmcsa.dot.gov. We obtain the carrier’s:

CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) scores
Inspection history and out-of-service rates
Crash history
Safety rating

A poor safety record can prove the company knew it was putting dangerous drivers on Hurst roads.

Evidence and Investigation Questions

What is a truck’s “black box” and how does it help my case?

Commercial trucks have Electronic Control Modules (ECM) and Event Data Recorders (EDR) that record operational data – similar to airplane black boxes but for trucks. This data can show:

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

This objective data often contradicts what drivers claim happened.

What is an ELD and why is it important?

Electronic Logging Devices (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 in Hurst.

How long does the trucking company keep black box and ELD data?

ECM data can be overwritten within 30 days or with new driving events. FMCSA only requires 6 months retention for ELD data. This is why we send spoliation letters immediately – once we notify them of litigation, they must preserve everything.

What records should my attorney get from the trucking company?

We pursue:

ECM/Black box data
ELD records
Driver Qualification File
Maintenance records
Inspection reports
Dispatch logs
Drug and alcohol test results
Training records
Cell phone records
Insurance policies
The physical truck and trailer

Can the trucking company destroy evidence?

Once they’re on notice of potential litigation, destroying evidence is spoliation – a serious legal violation. Courts can:

Instruct juries to assume destroyed evidence was unfavorable
Impose monetary sanctions
Enter default judgment in extreme cases
Award punitive damages

FMCSA Regulations Questions

What are hours of service regulations and how do violations cause accidents?

FMCSA regulations limit how long truck drivers can operate:

Maximum 11 hours driving after 10 hours off
Cannot drive beyond 14th consecutive hour on duty
30-minute break required after 8 hours driving
60/70 hour weekly limits

Fatigued driving causes approximately 31% of fatal truck crashes. Drivers who violate these rules are too tired to react safely on Hurst roads.

What FMCSA regulations are most commonly violated in accidents?

The top violations we find in Hurst trucking cases:

Hours of service violations (driving too long)
False log entries (lying about driving time)
Brake system deficiencies
Cargo securement failures
Drug and alcohol violations
Unqualified drivers (no valid CDL or medical certificate)
Failure to inspect vehicles

What is a Driver Qualification File and why does it matter?

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

Missing or incomplete files prove negligent hiring – a major liability issue in Hurst trucking cases.

How do pre-trip inspections relate to my accident case?

Drivers must inspect their trucks before every trip. If they failed to conduct inspections or ignored known defects (bad brakes, worn tires, lighting problems), both the driver and company may be liable for negligence. These inspection records are critical evidence in Hurst trucking cases.

Injury and Medical Questions

What injuries are common in 18-wheeler accidents in Hurst?

Due to the massive size and weight disparity, Hurst trucking accidents often cause catastrophic injuries:

Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
Amputations
Severe burns
Internal organ damage
Multiple fractures
Wrongful death

How much are 18-wheeler accident cases worth in Hurst?

Case values depend on many factors:

Severity of injuries
Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost income and earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Degree of defendant’s negligence
Insurance coverage available

Trucking companies carry higher insurance ($750,000 minimum, often $1-5 million), allowing for larger recoveries than typical car accidents. We’ve seen verdicts ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions.

What if my loved one was killed in a trucking accident in Hurst?

Texas allows wrongful death claims by surviving family members. You may recover:

Lost future income
Loss of companionship and guidance
Mental anguish
Funeral expenses
Punitive damages if gross negligence

Time limits apply – contact us immediately to protect your rights.

Legal Process Questions

How long do I have to file an 18-wheeler accident lawsuit in Hurst?

The statute of limitations in Texas is 2 years from the date of the accident. However, you should never wait. Evidence disappears quickly in trucking cases. The sooner you contact us, the stronger your case will be.

How long do trucking accident cases take to resolve?

Timelines vary:

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.

Will my trucking accident case go to trial?

Most cases settle before trial, but we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial. Insurance companies know which lawyers are willing to go to court – and they offer better settlements to clients with trial-ready attorneys. We have the resources and experience to take your Hurst case all the way if necessary.

Do I need to pay anything upfront to hire your firm?

NO. We work on contingency – you pay nothing unless we win your case. We advance all costs of investigation and litigation. You never receive a bill from us. When we win, our fee comes from the recovery, not your pocket.

Insurance Questions

How much insurance do trucking companies carry?

Federal law requires minimum liability coverage:

$750,000 for non-hazardous freight
$1,000,000 for oil, large equipment
$5,000,000 for hazardous materials

Many carriers carry $1-5 million or more. This higher coverage means catastrophic injuries can actually be compensated in Hurst trucking cases.

What if multiple insurance policies apply to my accident?

Trucking cases often involve multiple policies:

Motor carrier’s liability policy
Trailer interchange coverage
Cargo insurance
Owner-operator’s policy
Excess/umbrella coverage

We identify all available coverage to maximize your recovery.

Will the trucking company’s insurance try to settle quickly?

Often yes – and that’s a red flag. Quick settlement offers are designed to pay you far less than your case is worth before you understand the full extent of your injuries. Never accept any settlement without consulting an experienced Hurst trucking accident attorney first.
