Interstate 10 and Interstate 35 are vital shipping routes in and around Comal County, but they are also among the most dangerous roads in Texas. Every day, thousands of commercial trucks travel through New Braunfels and nearby areas, and unfortunately, not all of them are operated by well-rested drivers.

Driver fatigue is a leading cause of catastrophic truck crashes on these highways. When a truck driver is too tired to safely operate their rig, the consequences can be devastating. At highway speeds, a single moment of drowsiness can mean the difference between a close call and a fatal wreck. If you or a loved one were injured in a truck accident, speak with a qualified Texas personal injury lawyer to understand your options for compensation.

An 18-wheeler crossed the center median and hit a pickup head-on on June 13th, 2025, in Cherokee County, Texas. The crash happened early in the morning on U.S. Highway 69, with the impact causing the pickup to roll over and land upside down in a ditch. Both men in the pickup died at the scene.

After a head-on truck crash like this, families may be entitled to compensation through a wrongful death claim. Injured victims who survive could also file a personal injury claim. Our compassionate New Braunfels, TX truck accident lawyer can help by investigating the incident, identifying those responsible, and seeking financial compensation on your behalf.

What Happens During a Head-On Truck Crash?

A head-on collision is one of the most violent types of crashes. In a head-on collision, both vehicles are moving toward each other, which doubles the speed when they collide. For example, if both vehicles are traveling at 50 miles per hour, the impact is equivalent to hitting a wall at 100 miles per hour. When a large truck is involved, the impact often causes catastrophic or fatal injuries to the occupants of the passenger vehicle.

A hit-and-run accident in Austin claimed the life of a 29-year-old pedestrian and injured two others recently. The crash happened on an I-35 frontage road in the early morning hours of May 11th, 2025. The fatal victim was hospitalized for several days before her death on May 16th. Injured victims often undergo intensive medical treatment, only to eventually die from their wounds. In other cases, victims survive but have long-term or permanent conditions that will require lifelong medical care and other accommodations.

If someone else caused the collision that injured you or claimed your loved one’s life, you may be entitled to compensation. However, be very wary of an insurance company’s initial settlement offer. They are usually unreasonably low and do not provide nearly as much compensation as you deserve. To receive a maximum amount, you need the assistance of our skilled New Braunfels, TX personal injury lawyer.

US Route 287 in Alvord, TX was the scene of a highly unusual truck rollover accident. The semi was carrying $800,000 of brand-new dimes, which spilled all over the roadway and into the grass on the sides of the road. A miles-long traffic delay lasted for nearly 14 hours while crews used shovels, buckets, and sewage vacuum trucks to pick up the dimes. The cause of the accident is unclear.

While this crash only produced minor injuries, truck accidents caused by cargo issues often result in catastrophic or fatal injuries. If a semi accident injured you, our skilled Comal County, TX personal injury attorney can take appropriate action on your behalf.

What Kinds of Cargo Issues Can Lead to Semi-Truck Wrecks?

A semi’s trailer can be a box container, flatbed trailer, step deck, or another type of configuration. Liquids are also transported in tanker trucks. These trailers are designed to carry various kinds of extremely heavy cargo. The legal weight limit for most tractor-trailers is 80,000 pounds. Although the truck and empty trailer contribute to the overall weight, the freight load accounts for a major portion.

I-35 is a major interstate running from Laredo, TX to Duluth, MN. In Texas, this highway goes through several major cities, including San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, and Fort Worth. Denton, TX is northwest of Dallas and was the scene of two major multi-vehicle crashes on April 1st and 2nd, 2025. The first, involving seven vehicles, including an RV, killed one person and injured six more. The April 2nd crash required six ambulances to transport nine injured people to the hospital. Two of those people had life-threatening injuries.

When only two vehicles are involved in a car wreck, determining why it happened and who caused it is relatively straightforward. In a multiple-vehicle accident, those jobs are much harder.

When we drive, we expect streets, roads, and interstates to be in good condition and clear of debris. Broken pavement and potholes are dangerous, contributing to many motor vehicle accidents. Debris on the road also poses risks, especially for motorcyclists.

Several parties could share responsibility, and you need clear evidence proving fault for your insurance claim to be successful. Fortunately, a skilled Comal County, TX personal injury lawyer knows how to find out who was at fault and can help you pursue maximum compensation.

Who Could Be Liable for Debris on the Roads?

However, the claims process is not as simple as accusing someone else of causing your crash and waiting for your payment. You need several kinds of evidence to support your claim.

Why Do I Need Evidence for My Car Wreck Insurance Claim?
