Odessa Hit-and-Run Motorcycle Crash on Andrews Highway: What Happened and What You Can Do The call comes from Medical Center Hospital in Odessa, or from a family member who got the call at home at midnight. A 65-year-old man — a father, a husband, a brother — was riding his Harley-Davidson north on Andrews Highway on a Saturday night in March. At 8:49 p.m., a blue Honda Civic traveling south turned left east onto University Boulevard, directly into his path. The investigation by Odessa police found that the Honda failed to yield the right of way. The motorcycle struck the car. The rider went down with serious injuries. And the driver of the Honda did not stop. He did not check on the man he hit. He did not call for help. He drove away and left a 65-year-old person on the pavement. If you are reading this, you are the family. You are standing in a hospital hallway or sitting at a kitchen table with a phone full of missed calls and a head full of questions that will not wait for morning. We are going to answer the most important ones right now, and then we are going…

We are going to tell you everything we know about what happens next — not as a sales pitch, but as the straight legal truth from a trial team that has spent decades inside these cases. The crash happened at Andrews Highway and University on a Saturday night in March. A southbound Honda Civic turned left across a northbound Harley-Davidson, failed to yield, and then ran. The rider — a 65-year-old man — is now fighting for his life at a trauma center hours from home. The driver and a second person have been arrested. That is the surface. Beneath it is a case that is stronger, and more urgent, than most people realize. Here is why, and here is what to do about it.

What Happened on Andrews Highway in Odessa — and What It Means for Your Family You are reading this because someone you love was on Andrews Highway on a Thursday evening in Odessa, and a pickup truck driven by a man who should never have been behind the wheel changed everything in the seconds it took for four vehicles to collide at the intersection of Yukon. The Odessa Police Department charged the driver of that Dodge Ram with intoxication assault — a third-degree felony under Texas law — which means investigators already concluded that his impairment caused serious bodily injury to another person. That charge is not your civil case. But it is the strongest piece of evidence your civil case will ever have, and the insurance company knows it. We are Attorney911 — Legal Emergency Lawyers. We handle drunk-driving injury cases in Texas. And the first thing you need to understand is this: the proof that this crash was his fault is already being gathered by the police and the Ector County prosecutor — but the proof that could make your family’s case worth what it should be worth is disappearing, right now, on a clock you cannot see.…

A Drunk Driver With Three Prior DWI Convictions Ran a Red Light in Odessa — and a Motorcyclist Is Fighting for His Life in Lubbock If you are reading this from a hospital hallway in Lubbock, or from a kitchen table in Odessa where the phone just rang with news no family is ready to hear, we want you to understand one thing before anything else: what happened to your motorcyclist at 2:04 a.m. on August 9 at University Boulevard and Andrews Highway was not an accident. It was a choice — a choice made by a man who had already been convicted of driving drunk three times before, who got behind the wheel of a silver Jeep Commander again, who ran a red light in the commercial heart of Odessa, and who then ran away on foot while a 35-year-old man lay in the street with life-threatening injuries. The Odessa Police Department arrested him. He admitted to hitting the motorcycle. Officers determined he was drunk. They found nearly five ounces of marijuana in his possession. He was charged with Intoxication Assault Causing Serious Bodily Injury, Collision Involving Personal Injury, Possession of Marijuana, and Evading Arrest. He is in the…

The Crash on Andrews Highway: What Happened and What It Means for Your Family If you are reading this from a hospital waiting room in Lubbock, or from a kitchen table in Odessa where a chair is empty that should not be empty, we need you to hear something first: what happened to your rider was not an accident. It was a choice — a choice to turn left across a motorcycle that had the right of way, and then a second choice, even worse, to leave a human being broken on the pavement and drive away. On the night of March 14, 2026, at 8:49 PM, a motorcyclist riding a black Harley-Davidson northbound on Andrews Highway was struck at the intersection of University Boulevard by a blue Honda Civic traveling southbound. The Civic’s driver turned left into the motorcycle’s path — the single most common and most deadly collision pattern in motorcycle safety research, known across the field by its acronym: SMIDSY, “Sorry, Mate, I Didn’t See You.” The rider was rushed to Medical Center Hospital in Odessa with serious injuries, then airlifted to a Level I trauma center in Lubbock, roughly 150 miles northeast. That flight — the…

Fatal Hit-and-Run Motorcycle Crash on University Boulevard in Odessa: What the Evidence Already Shows You are reading this because someone you love is gone. Two people — a husband and wife, 40 and 38 years old, from Midland — were killed on the night of April 2 at the intersection of W University Boulevard and Sycamore Drive in Odessa. They were on a motorcycle. A Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck turned in front of them. The impact pinned both of them beneath the truck. The driver got out, saw what he had done, and ran.

The Crash on Loop 338: What Happened and What It Means for You If you were on E. Loop 338 near 87th Street when the 18-wheeler crashed, or if someone you love was, you already know what the road looked like that day — the diesel running across the asphalt, the flashing lights, the southbound lanes gone. What you may not know is that while you were sitting in that traffic or standing on the shoulder, the trucking company’s response machine was already in motion. Within hours of a crash like this, carriers deploy their own investigators, their own insurance adjusters, and their own attorneys to the scene. They begin building the company’s version of what happened before the tow truck even arrives. That is not a coincidence. It is procedure. The Odessa Police Department has confirmed that a crash involving an 18-wheeler occurred at the intersection of E. Loop 338 and 87th Street, resulting in a diesel fuel spill that forced the closure of both southbound lanes for several hours. The public report does not yet identify the commercial carrier, the driver, any other vehicles involved, or whether injuries or fatalities occurred. The full Texas CR-3 crash report —…

Odessa Semi-Truck Crash on Loop 338: Your Rights After a Permian Basin Commercial Vehicle Wreck If you were on E. Loop 338 near 87th Street on May 12, 2026 — whether you were in the traffic that backed up when both southbound lanes shut down, whether you witnessed the semi-truck lose control, or whether you were in a vehicle anywhere near that diesel spill — you are reading this because something about what happened does not sit right. You may be hurting and not yet realize how badly. You may have been told by a friendly voice on the phone that everything is handled. You may be wondering whether you even have a case, because the news only mentioned a truck and a spill and closed lanes.
