Truck Accidents in Texas

October 11th, 2007 · No Comments

Accidents involving large trucks are among the most serious and deadly in the United States. The problem is especially acute here in Texas, where U.S.-based trucks pick up loads at the Mexican border for distribution throughout the country.

According to federal data, U.S.-Mexico trade has more than doubled since the North American Free Trade Agreement was implemented in 1994. Approximately 68 percent of truck traffic from Mexico enters the U.S. at the Texas border.

It is a common misconception that accidents involving large trucks are simply personal injury cases involving a larger vehicle; however, there are specific laws and regulations governing the safety of commercial motor vehicles and issues which are unique to cases involving commercial vehicles.

These cases require a thorough understanding of commercial vehicle regulations on both the federal and state level.  To learn more, contact the Texas Truck Accident Lawyers at Williams Kherkher by calling 1.800.220.9341.
