Midland Andrews Highway Crash: Your Legal Rights After an Intersection Accident on One of West Texas’s Busiest Corridors If you are reading this because you were on Andrews Highway on April 7, 2026 — whether you drove through that dark intersection at West Golf Course Road after the signal was knocked out, or you were involved in the head-on collision in the 3600 block, or someone you love was — you are probably sitting with questions that have not been answered yet. The news said the signal is working again. What it did not tell you is what happens to the evidence, what your rights are if you are hurt, and why the next few days matter more than most people realize. We are Attorney911. We handle car accident and catastrophic-injury cases across Texas, and we are writing this for one person: you, at your kitchen table in Midland, trying to figure out whether what happened to you on Andrews Highway is something you need to take seriously.

Midland County Train-Truck Collision on Highway 80: What Happened, Who Is Liable, and What You Must Do Right Now You were on Highway 80 in Midland County when the crossing came up — the one where SCR 1250 meets the tracks. A train hit a semi-truck carrying frozen food, and the news says no one was hurt. Maybe you were the driver of that truck. Maybe you were in the train’s cab. Maybe you were on the road nearby when the collision scattered frozen cargo across the rails and the asphalt. Whoever you are, you are reading this because something does not feel right. The adrenaline has started to fade. Your neck is stiff. Your head aches. You cannot sleep the way you used to. And someone — an insurance adjuster, a carrier representative, a railroad claims agent — has already called you to ask how you are feeling, and the recording is running. We are Attorney911. We are a Texas trial firm that takes commercial-vehicle, railroad-crossing, and catastrophic-injury cases.

When a Stop Sign and an 80,000-Pound Truck Meet on a Permian Basin Highway — Your Family’s Legal Reality After the SH 349 Fatal Crash You are reading this because someone you love did not come home from the road on December 1, 2024. The Texas Department of Public Safety has issued a press release. It says the passenger vehicle disregarded a stop sign at the intersection of State Highway 349 and Farm-to-Market Road 1213, roughly five miles south of Interstate 20 in rural Midland County. A northbound Freightliner semi-truck towing a belly-dump trailer struck that vehicle. The driver of the passenger vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene. The commercial driver was transported to Midland Memorial Hospital with what were described as minor injuries. The Midland Fire Department responded. The crash remains under investigation. That is what the press release says. It is not the whole story, and it is not the final word on who bears responsibility for what happened that night. We are writing this page for the family — the spouse, the children, the parents — who are sitting at a kitchen table in the Permian Basin or in Fort Bend or wherever grief has landed,…

Midland Shooting on West Loop 250 — Legal Rights and Compensation After a Violent Assault in the Permian Basin You are reading this because someone you care about was shot. Maybe it was on April 25, 2026, near West Loop 250 in Midland, or maybe it was a different day on a different stretch of the same kind of road — and the person who pulled the trigger is either in custody or still out there. Either way, you are sitting with a hospital discharge paper in one hand and a police report number in the other, and nobody has explained what happens next in language that makes sense. We are going to do that now. What the public reporting tells us is this: on April 25, 2026, a member of the Mongols Motorcycle Club was shot near West Loop 250 in Midland.

The Crash on SH 349 That Took a Life — and Why the Full Story Has Not Been Told Yet If you are reading this because someone you love was killed on State Highway 349 on the night of December 1, 2024, we want you to hear something first: the fact that the initial report says a stop sign was run does not mean the investigation is over, and it does not mean no one else bears responsibility for what happened. A commercial semi-truck traveling through a dark rural intersection in the Permian Basin at night carries duties that go far beyond the right of way — and those duties are investigated with evidence most families never learn exists until it is gone. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle commercial truck accident cases across Texas, including the oilfield corridors of the Permian Basin where SH 349 carries truck traffic that dwarfs what those rural roads were built to handle. This page is not a news recap. It is the legal and forensic analysis we would give a family sitting across from us — what happened, what the law allows, what the truck’s black box and…

Fiery Head-On Collision Near Midland: What Five Deaths on a Permian Basin Highway Mean for Families Who Lost Everything You are reading this because someone you love was killed on a two-lane highway in West Texas, and the silence from the insurance company is already louder than the crash itself. We know that silence. We know what fills it — the adjuster who has not called back, the tow yard that wants to charge you storage on a vehicle that is evidence, the DPS report that is not ready yet, and the funeral you had to plan before anyone told you what happened on that road. We are writing this page because the decisions made in the first days after a commercial truck kills a family member are the decisions that decide whether the truth survives. On a Sunday afternoon in early February 2011, a Volkswagen Beetle collided head-on with a dump truck approximately five miles north of Midland, Texas. The crash was catastrophic. All four people in the subcompact car — a grandmother and her three grandchildren, ages eight, three, and two — were killed on impact. The dump truck driver, fifty-six years old, survived the initial collision. He…

When a Drunk Driver Hits Your Car and Runs in Midland, Texas You are standing in a parking lot in Midland, looking at damage that was not there an hour ago. Or you are sitting on the shoulder of Andrews Highway, your car pushed sideways, watching a silver Hummer weave away through traffic. Or you are at home and a police officer is on the phone telling you they found the person who hit your parked car on Fredna Place — and that person was arrested for driving while intoxicated. For the second time. The relief that the driver was caught is real. So is the anger that they ran. And underneath both is a question nobody has answered for you yet: who pays for this? The criminal case handles the handcuffs. The prosecutor handles the charges. But the criminal court does not write you a check for your bumper, your rental car, your missed shift at the rig, or the neck pain that showed up two days after the tow truck left. That is a separate fight — a civil fight — and it runs on a different clock than the one the police officer told you about. We…

The Truck That Hit You on Garden City Highway Is Gone — But Your Options Are Not The morning of January 28, 2026, started like most mornings in Midland. The oilfield was already running. By 8:25 a.m., the roustabout trucks, water haulers, and crew transports were moving through the south side of town, running the corridors that connect Midland to the Permian Basin’s web of well sites and staging areas. You were at or near the intersection of Garden City Highway and South Fairgrounds Road — a stretch of road that sees heavy oilfield service traffic every single day. A roustabout truck — a commercial oilfield service vehicle bearing a company logo — collided with your pickup. And then it was gone, heading south on South Fairgrounds Road, leaving you on the side of one of Midland’s busiest oilfield arteries. More than two months have passed. The Midland Police Department Traffic Division is asking the public for help identifying the company logo on that truck. The at-fault commercial vehicle and its operating entity remain unidentified. If you were in that pickup — or someone you love was — you are reading this because you have questions, and the answers matter…

You may be standing in a hospital corridor right now, or sitting at a kitchen table at two in the morning, trying to understand how an ordinary drive across West Texas became a fight for survival. The Midland Fire Department had to cut your person out of the wreckage. The condition has not been released.

And while you wait for answers, the evidence that would tell the truest story of what happened at that crossing is already beginning to disappear. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We handle commercial truck collisions and catastrophic injury cases across Texas, including the Permian Basin.
