Truck Accident Attorney in Houston: Truck and Auto Collisions

Have you been injured in a truck-auto collision in the Houston area?

Every day hundreds of thousands of trucks and autos travel the highways and roads in and around Houston. Due to the heavy traffic and the weight, size and momentum of most 18 wheelers and other large trucks, even a few seconds of distraction can result in a serious and life-altering collision. With trucks and smaller vehicles having to share the road, it is extremely important that all drivers pay attention to the road and to the other vehicles around them, particularly large commercial trucks.

According to the US Department of Transportation, there are over 500,000 trucking accidents each and every year. Per reports from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Texas has one of the highest rates for fatal truck/auto collisions in the entire United States. Another report details that an estimated 98 percent of large truck/auto collision fatalities involved occupants of the automobile, rather than the truck. A tired driver, or one who has been behind the wheel for more than eight hours, is twice as likely to get into a collision. Driving log violations or trucking company negligence c an also play a major role in causing collisions to occur.
