Houston Avenue Bridge Hit for Third Time in 2026: Why This 18-Wheeler’s Too-Tall Load Forced I-10 Shutdown and What It Means for Angleton Drivers By Attorney911 | The Manginello Law Firm The Anatomy of a Bridge Strike: How a Too-Tall Load Becomes a Highway Nightmare What “Too Tall” Really Means When we say the load was “too tall,” we’re talking about a violation of 49 CFR § 393.100, which requires that cargo be contained, immobilized, or secured to prevent shifting or loss during transit. But more specifically, this was a clearance violation. The Houston Avenue Bridge has a vertical clearance of 14 feet, 6 inches—a measurement that’s clearly marked on signs approaching the bridge. Most standard 18-wheelers with trailers stand about 13 feet, 6 inches tall when empty. Add cargo, and that height increases. What likely happened: - The driver or loading crew failed to measure the loaded height of the trailer - The truck ignored clearance warning signs posted before the bridge - The driver did not have a route plan that accounted for low-clearance bridges - The trucking company failed to provide proper training on height clearance procedures This isn’t just a paperwork violation—it’s a direct violation of…

When Corporate Accountability Fails: The Montana Asbestos Tragedy and What It Means for Cleburne Families The Libby, Montana Asbestos Disaster: A Warning for Texas Communities The small town of Libby, Montana, has been called one of the worst environmental disasters in U.S. history. For decades, thousands of residents were exposed to deadly asbestos fibers from a nearby vermiculite mine operated by W.R. Grace & Company. The contamination was so severe that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) declared Libby a Superfund site in 2002—one of the largest and most complex cleanups in the agency’s history. Now, a federal appeals court has overturned a lower court’s ruling that held BNSF Railway partially responsible for the deaths of two Libby residents. The victims, like so many others in the community, were exposed to asbestos not just from the mine itself, but from the rail cars that transported the contaminated vermiculite across the country. BNSF, one of the nation’s largest freight railroads, had been found liable for contributing to the spread of asbestos through its operations in Libby. This ruling doesn’t just affect Montana—it sends a dangerous message to communities across America, including Cleburne, Texas, where railroads, industrial facilities, and corporate negligence pose similar…
