Irving Trucking Accident Lawyer

Our personal injury lawyers at O'Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath have assisted many individuals injured in accidents with negligent truck drivers. We know how trucking accidents occur and have proven successful strategies to vindicate the rights of injured victims.

Trucking Accident Causes

Trucking accidents occur when trucks travel or are loaded unsafely and cause injuries to other drivers. Massive semis on today's roads are sometimes driven by tired inexperienced drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

The National Transportation Safety Board reports that most trucking accidents occur on otherwise safe, straight, level, dry, paved roadways, and most don't involve drugs or alcohol, either. At O'Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, our Texas trucking accident attorneys know that negligence comes in many forms other than impairment.

Frequent Trucking Accidents

These horrific and life changing accidents occur on a frighteningly frequent basis. All too often they occur when truck drivers are encouraged by their employers to drive when they are tired or distracted, or when drivers drive too fast, aggressively, or become numbed to the danger they create for the average automobile occupants with whom they share the roadway. All of these factors can combine to cause a serious, life-threatening 18 wheeler crash.
