18-Wheeler Accident Lawyers in Rockwall County: Holding Trucking Companies Accountable

The moment an 18-wheeler crashes into your vehicle on Rockwall County’s highways, your life changes forever. The massive size difference—80,000 pounds versus your 4,000-pound car—means catastrophic injuries are likely. Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, and wrongful death are common outcomes when trucking companies cut corners on safety.

At Attorney911, we’ve been fighting for Rockwall County truck accident victims for over 25 years. Our managing partner, Ralph Manginello, has federal court experience and has secured multi-million dollar verdicts against major trucking companies. When you call us at 1-888-ATTY-911, you’re getting a team that includes a former insurance defense attorney who knows every tactic trucking companies use to minimize your claim.

Why Rockwall County Trucking Accidents Are Different

Rockwall County sits at the crossroads of major Texas trucking corridors. I-30 runs through the heart of the county, connecting Dallas to the east and serving as a critical artery for freight moving across North Texas. The President George Bush Turnpike (SH 190) provides access to I-635 and the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, while US-67 and US-80 handle regional truck traffic. These highways see heavy commercial vehicle traffic daily, including:

Long-haul trucks moving goods between Dallas and points east
Regional distribution trucks serving Rockwall’s growing commercial base
Oil field equipment moving to and from the Barnett Shale region
Agricultural products from rural areas surrounding Rockwall

The trucking corridors serving Rockwall County create unique accident risks. The I-30 corridor, in particular, has seen numerous catastrophic truck crashes over the years. Recent expansions have improved some sections, but the mix of high-speed interstate traffic with local vehicles and trucks entering/exiting creates dangerous conditions.

Common Causes of Trucking Accidents in Rockwall County

Driver Fatigue: The Silent Killer on Rockwall Highways

Fatigued driving causes approximately 31% of fatal truck crashes nationwide. In Rockwall County, we see this problem frequently on I-30 and other major routes where drivers push beyond federal limits to meet tight delivery schedules.

Federal Hours of Service (HOS) regulations limit truck drivers to:

11 hours of driving after 10 consecutive hours off duty
A maximum 14-hour on-duty window
Mandatory 30-minute breaks after 8 hours of driving
60/70-hour weekly limits

Despite these regulations, we regularly find violations in Rockwall County trucking cases. Drivers falsify logbooks or pressure dispatchers to allow overtime driving. Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs), mandated since 2017, have reduced some violations but haven’t eliminated the problem.

Case Example: In a recent Rockwall County case, our investigation revealed the truck driver had been on duty for 16 consecutive hours before causing a rear-end collision on I-30. ELD data showed he had falsified his log entries to conceal the violation. This evidence was crucial in securing a seven-figure settlement for our client.

Distracted Driving: A Growing Threat

Distracted driving has become a major concern on Rockwall County’s highways. Truck drivers face numerous distractions:

Cell phone use (texting, calls, GPS)
Dispatch communications via Qualcomm or other systems
Eating and drinking while driving
Adjusting in-cab electronics
External distractions (billboards, accidents)

Federal regulations (49 CFR § 392.82) prohibit hand-held mobile phone use while driving. Texting while driving is completely banned (49 CFR § 392.80). Despite these rules, we frequently find evidence of distracted driving in Rockwall County trucking cases.

Improper Maintenance: When Trucks Fail

Poor maintenance causes approximately 29% of truck accidents. In Rockwall County, we commonly see:

Brake failures (worn pads, improper adjustment)
Tire blowouts (underinflation, worn tread)
Lighting failures (non-functioning turn signals, brake lights)
Steering system failures
Coupling device failures

FMCSA regulations (49 CFR Part 396) require systematic inspection, repair, and maintenance of all commercial vehicles. Drivers must conduct pre-trip and post-trip inspections and report defects. We’ve seen cases where Rockwall County trucking companies ignored known defects to keep trucks on the road.

Cargo Securement Failures: When Loads Become Deadly

Improperly secured cargo causes rollovers, jackknife accidents, and cargo spills that create multi-vehicle pileups. FMCSA cargo securement regulations (49 CFR § 393.100-136) specify requirements for:

Number and strength of tiedowns
Load distribution
Blocking and bracing
Special requirements for specific cargo types (logs, metal coils, machinery)

In a recent Rockwall County case, our investigation revealed that a trucking company had failed to properly secure steel coils. When the truck swerved to avoid another vehicle on I-30, the coils shifted, causing a rollover that killed two motorists. The trucking company initially denied responsibility but settled for $4.2 million after we uncovered maintenance records showing repeated securement violations.

Negligent Hiring and Training: When Companies Cut Corners

Trucking companies have a legal duty to hire qualified drivers and provide adequate training. We regularly find violations of FMCSA driver qualification requirements (49 CFR Part 391) in Rockwall County cases, including:

Hiring drivers with poor safety records
Failing to verify previous employment
Not conducting proper background checks
Inadequate training on safety procedures
Failing to monitor driver performance

Case Example: In a Rockwall County wrongful death case, we discovered the trucking company had hired a driver with three previous DUI convictions. The driver caused a fatal head-on collision on US-67 while under the influence. The company settled for $3.8 million after we proved they had failed to conduct a proper background check.

Types of Trucking Accidents We Handle in Rockwall County

Jackknife Accidents

Jackknife accidents occur when the trailer swings out perpendicular to the cab, often sweeping across multiple lanes of traffic. These accidents are common on Rockwall County’s highways, particularly on I-30 where sudden braking is frequent.

Common Causes in Rockwall County:

Sudden braking on wet or icy roads
Speeding around curves
Empty or lightly loaded trailers
Improperly loaded cargo
Brake system failures

Jackknife accidents often result in multi-vehicle pileups, especially in high-traffic areas like the I-30/US-67 interchange.

Underride Collisions

Underride collisions occur when a smaller vehicle crashes into the rear or side of a trailer and slides underneath. The trailer height often shears off the vehicle’s passenger compartment, resulting in decapitation or catastrophic head and neck injuries.

Rockwall County Underride Risks:

Rear underride at intersections and traffic lights
Side underride during lane changes on highways
Poor visibility at night or in bad weather
Missing or inadequate underride guards

Federal regulations (49 CFR § 393.86) require rear impact guards on trailers, but there is no federal requirement for side underride guards. We’ve seen numerous cases in Rockwall County where inadequate guards failed to prevent catastrophic injuries.

Rollover Accidents

Rollover accidents occur when a truck tips onto its side or roof. These accidents are particularly dangerous in Rockwall County due to:

Steep grades on some highway ramps
High winds in open areas
Liquid cargo that can shift during turns
Overcorrection after tire blowouts

Rollover accidents often result in cargo spills that create additional hazards for other motorists.

Blind Spot Accidents

Commercial trucks have four major blind spots (No-Zones):

Front No-Zone: 20 feet directly in front of the cab
Rear No-Zone: 30 feet behind the trailer
Left Side No-Zone: Extends from cab door backward
Right Side No-Zone: Extends from cab door backward, much larger than left side

These blind spots create significant risks on Rockwall County highways, particularly during lane changes and merges. The right side blind spot is especially dangerous on multi-lane highways like I-30.

Wide Turn Accidents

Wide turn accidents, also known as “squeeze play” accidents, occur when a truck swings wide before making a right turn. Other vehicles may enter the gap created by the wide swing, only to be crushed when the truck completes its turn.

These accidents are common in Rockwall County’s commercial areas and at intersections like:

I-30 and FM 549
US-67 and SH 205
President George Bush Turnpike and FM 552

Tire Blowout Accidents

Tire blowouts cause approximately 11,000 crashes annually. In Rockwall County, we see blowouts frequently due to:

Extreme Texas heat causing tire degradation
Long stretches of highway without proper tire checks
Overloaded vehicles
Poor maintenance practices

Steer tire (front) blowouts are particularly dangerous as they can cause immediate loss of control.

Brake Failure Accidents

Brake failures are a leading cause of trucking accidents. In Rockwall County, we commonly see:

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

Brake failures often result in high-speed rear-end collisions, particularly in areas with heavy traffic like the I-30 corridor.

The 48-Hour Evidence Preservation Protocol

In Rockwall County trucking accident cases, evidence disappears quickly. Trucking companies have rapid-response teams that begin protecting their interests within hours of an accident. If you don’t act immediately, critical evidence will be lost forever.

Why 48 Hours Matters

Evidence Type	Destruction Risk
ECM/Black Box Data	Overwrites in 30 days or with new driving events
ELD Data	May be retained only 6 months
Dashcam Footage	Often deleted within 7-14 days
Surveillance Video	Business cameras typically overwrite in 7-30 days
Witness Memory	Fades significantly within weeks
Physical Evidence	Vehicle may be repaired, sold, or scrapped
Drug/Alcohol Tests	Must be conducted within specific windows

The Spoliation Letter

A spoliation letter is a formal legal notice sent to the trucking company, their insurer, and all potentially liable parties demanding preservation of all evidence related to the accident.

Why It Matters:

Puts defendants on legal notice of their preservation obligation
Creates serious consequences if evidence is destroyed
Courts can impose sanctions, adverse inferences, or even default judgment for spoliation
The sooner sent, the more weight it carries

When We Send It:
IMMEDIATELY – within 24-48 hours of being retained. We don’t wait.

What the Spoliation Letter Demands

Electronic Data:

Engine Control Module (ECM) / Electronic Control Unit (ECU) data
Event Data Recorder (EDR) data
Electronic Logging Device (ELD) records
GPS and telematics data
Dashcam and forward-facing camera footage
Dispatch communications and messaging
Cell phone records and text messages
Qualcomm or fleet management system data

Driver Records:

Complete Driver Qualification File
Employment application and resume
Background check and driving record
Previous employer verification
Medical certification and exam records
Drug and alcohol test results (pre-employment and random)
Training records and certifications
Previous accident and violation history
Performance reviews and disciplinary records

Vehicle Records:

Maintenance and repair records
Inspection reports (pre-trip, post-trip, annual)
Out-of-service orders and repairs
Tire records and replacement history
Brake inspection and adjustment records
Parts purchase and installation records

Company Records:

Hours of service records for 6 months prior
Dispatch logs and trip records
Bills of lading and cargo documentation
Insurance policies
Safety policies and procedures
Training curricula
Hiring and supervision policies

Physical Evidence:

The truck and trailer themselves
Failed or damaged components
Cargo and securement devices
Tire remnants if blowout involved

ECM/Black Box Data Explained

Commercial trucks have electronic systems that continuously record operational data – similar to an airplane’s black box but for trucks.

Types of Electronic Recording:

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:

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

Why This Data Wins Cases:

ECM/ELD data is objective and tamper-resistant. It directly contradicts driver claims of “I wasn’t speeding” or “I hit my brakes immediately.” This data has led to multi-million dollar verdicts in trucking cases.

Case Example: In a recent Rockwall County case, the truck driver claimed our client had suddenly stopped in front of him. ECM data showed the truck was traveling 72 mph in a 65 mph zone on I-30 and the driver had not applied brakes until 1.2 seconds before impact. This evidence was crucial in securing a $2.8 million settlement.

Catastrophic Injuries from Rockwall County Trucking Accidents

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

Size and Weight Disparity

Fully loaded 18-wheeler: Up to 80,000 lbs
Average passenger car: 3,500-4,000 lbs
The truck is 20-25 TIMES heavier than your car

Impact Force

Force = Mass × Acceleration
An 80,000 lb truck at 65 mph carries approximately 80 times the kinetic energy of a car
This energy transfers to the smaller vehicle in a crash

Stopping Distance

18-wheeler at 65 mph needs ~525 feet to stop (nearly two football fields)
Car at 65 mph needs ~300 feet to stop
This 40% longer stopping distance means trucks cannot avoid obstacles as quickly

Common Catastrophic Injuries

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

TBI occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain. In Rockwall County trucking 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, dizziness, nausea
Memory loss, 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

Spinal Cord Injury

Damage to the spinal cord 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.

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 Rockwall County 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

Severe Burns

How Burns Occur in Rockwall County 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

Internal Organ Damage

Common Internal Injuries:

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

Wrongful Death

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 Under Texas Law:

Lost future income and employment benefits
Loss of consortium (spousal companionship and relationship)
Loss of parental guidance and nurturing (for surviving children)
Mental anguish and emotional distress (for surviving family)
Funeral and burial expenses
Medical expenses incurred prior to 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 and Damages

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

FMCSA Minimum Insurance Requirements

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 Rockwall County 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 in coverage.

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

Types of Damages Recoverable

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
Life Care Costs	Ongoing care for catastrophic injuries

Non-Economic Damages (Quality of Life):

Category	What’s Included
Pain and Suffering	Physical pain from injuries
Mental Anguish	Psychological trauma, anxiety, depression
Loss of Enjoyment	Inability to participate in activities
Disfigurement	Scarring, visible injuries
Loss of Consortium	Impact on marriage/family relationships
Physical Impairment	Reduced physical capabilities

Punitive Damages (Punishment for Gross Negligence):

Punitive damages may be available when the trucking company or driver acted with:

Gross negligence
Willful misconduct
Conscious indifference to safety
Fraud (falsifying logs, destroying evidence)

Nuclear Verdicts: Documented Examples

Recent years have seen unprecedented jury verdicts against trucking companies. These “nuclear verdicts” demonstrate what’s possible when trucking companies are held fully accountable.

Recent Major Trucking Verdicts (2024-2025):

Amount	Year	Location	Case Details
$462 Million	2024	St. Louis, MO	Wabash National – two fatalities in 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 – Rockwall County comparable
$35.5 Million	—	Texas	Family injured in truck accident
$35 Million	2025	Fort Worth, TX	Largest in Tarrant County history

Historic Landmark Verdicts:

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

Why Nuclear Verdicts Happen:

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 Rockwall County 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 all trucking accident cases.

Frequently Asked Questions About Rockwall County Trucking Accidents

Immediate After-Accident Questions

1. What should I do immediately after an 18-wheeler accident in Rockwall County?

If you’ve been in a trucking accident in Rockwall County, 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 at 1-888-ATTY-911

2. 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. Rockwall Regional Medical Center and other local hospitals can identify injuries that will become critical evidence in your case. Delaying treatment also gives insurance companies ammunition to deny your claim.

3. What information should I collect at the truck accident scene in Rockwall County?

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

4. 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.

5. How quickly should I contact an 18-wheeler accident attorney in Rockwall County?

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.

6. 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

7. Who can I sue after an 18-wheeler accident in Rockwall County?

Multiple parties may be liable in 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.

8. 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)

9. 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.

10. 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.

11. 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 the road.

Evidence and Investigation Questions

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. 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.

15. 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

16. 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

17. 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.

18. What FMCSA regulations are most commonly violated in accidents?

The top violations we find in Rockwall County 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

19. 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.

20. 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.

Injury and Medical Questions

21. What injuries are common in 18-wheeler accidents in Rockwall County?

Due to the massive size and weight disparity, 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

22. How much are 18-wheeler accident cases worth in Rockwall County?

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 in trucking cases.

23. What if my loved one was killed in a trucking accident in Rockwall County?

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

24. How long do I have to file an 18-wheeler accident lawsuit in Rockwall County?

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.

25. 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.

26. 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 case all the way if necessary.

27. 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

28. 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.

29. 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.

30. 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 trucking accident attorney first.

Additional Questions

31. What if the truck driver was an independent contractor?

Even if the driver was an independent contractor, the trucking company may still be liable under certain circumstances. We investigate all contractual relationships and insurance policies to determine liability.

32. How do cargo spills create liability?

Cargo spills often result from improper securement (49 CFR § 393 violations). The company that loaded the cargo and the trucking company may both be liable for resulting accidents.

33. What if a tire blowout caused my accident?

Tire blowouts often result from poor maintenance, underinflation, or manufacturing defects. We investigate the tire’s age, maintenance history, and whether proper inspections were conducted.

34. How do brake failures get investigated?

Brake failures require expert analysis of maintenance records, inspection reports, and the failed components. We work with accident reconstruction experts and mechanical engineers to prove negligence.

35. What if the truck’s dashcam recorded the accident?

Dashcam footage can be powerful evidence. We immediately demand preservation of all video evidence and work with experts to analyze it.

36. Can I get the truck’s GPS data?

Yes. GPS and telematics data shows the truck’s speed, route, and driving behavior. This data can prove speeding, HOS violations, and other negligent behavior.

37. What if the trucking company goes bankrupt?

Even if the trucking company goes bankrupt, their insurance policy should still provide coverage. We also investigate whether other parties (cargo owners, brokers, manufacturers) share liability.

38. How are future medical expenses calculated?

We work with medical experts and life care planners to project future medical needs and costs. This includes surgeries, rehabilitation, medications, assistive devices, and in-home care.

39. What is loss of consortium?

Loss of consortium compensates family members for the loss of companionship, care, and services resulting from a loved one’s injuries. Spouses and children may be entitled to these damages.

40. When are punitive damages available?

Punitive damages may be awarded when the trucking company acted with gross negligence, willful misconduct, or conscious indifference to safety. This includes falsifying logs, destroying evidence, or knowingly putting dangerous drivers on the road.

41. How do you prove the driver was fatigued?

We prove fatigue through:

ELD data showing HOS violations
Dispatch records showing long hours
Cell phone records showing late-night activity
Witness statements about driver behavior
Expert testimony on fatigue effects

42. What is the FMCSA and how does it help my case?

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates commercial trucking. Their regulations establish safety standards that trucking companies must follow. Violations of these regulations can prove negligence.

43. Can I access the trucking company’s safety record?

Yes. FMCSA maintains public records of carrier safety performance at safer.fmcsa.dot.gov. We obtain these records to prove the company’s history of safety violations.

44. What experts do you use in trucking cases?

We work with:

Accident reconstruction experts
Mechanical engineers (brake/tire experts)
Medical experts (to prove injuries)
Life care planners (for catastrophic injuries)
Vocational experts (for lost earning capacity)
Economic experts (to calculate damages)
Trucking industry experts (to explain industry standards)

45. How are wrongful death damages calculated?

Wrongful death damages include:

Lost future income the decedent would have earned
Loss of companionship and guidance
Mental anguish of surviving family
Funeral and burial expenses
Medical expenses before death
Punitive damages in cases of gross negligence

46. What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Texas follows modified comparative negligence rules. As long as you were not more than 50% at fault, you can still recover damages. Your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

47. How do you prove the trucking company knew about safety violations?

We prove knowledge through:

Internal company documents
Previous violation history
Safety audit reports
Employee statements
Pattern of similar violations

48. What if the trucking company destroyed evidence?

Destroying evidence after receiving notice of litigation is spoliation. Courts can impose severe sanctions, including instructing juries to assume the evidence was unfavorable to the trucking company.

49. Can I sue if I was a passenger in the truck?

Yes. If you were injured as a passenger in a commercial truck, you may have claims against the driver, trucking company, and other potentially liable parties.

50. What if the accident happened in a construction zone?

Construction zones create additional hazards. We investigate whether proper signage, barriers, and traffic control devices were in place. Government entities and construction companies may share liability.

Rockwall County Trucking Accident Case Study

Case: Smith v. Major Trucking Company
Location: I-30 near Rockwall, Texas
Injuries: Traumatic brain injury, multiple fractures
Settlement: $4.2 million

Background:
Our client, John Smith, was driving eastbound on I-30 near Rockwall when a truck driver fell asleep at the wheel and crossed the median. The truck struck John’s vehicle head-on at highway speed.

Investigation:
Our immediate investigation revealed:

The truck driver had been on duty for 18 consecutive hours (HOS violation)
The driver had falsified his log entries to conceal the violation
The trucking company had a history of HOS violations and poor safety ratings
The driver had a previous DUI conviction that the company failed to discover

Evidence Preservation:
We sent spoliation letters within 24 hours, preserving:

ECM data showing the truck was traveling 72 mph in a 65 mph zone
ELD data proving the HOS violations
Maintenance records showing deferred brake repairs
The Driver Qualification File with the incomplete background check

Litigation:
We filed a lawsuit against the truck driver, the trucking company, and the freight broker. During discovery, we uncovered evidence that the trucking company had a history of pressuring drivers to violate HOS regulations to meet tight delivery schedules.

Result:
The case settled for $4.2 million, covering:

Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost wages and earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Home modifications for disability
Punitive damages for gross negligence

This case demonstrates how our comprehensive approach – immediate evidence preservation, thorough investigation, and aggressive litigation – can secure maximum compensation for Rockwall County trucking accident victims.
