Two left lanes were closed while emergency crews responded to the crash scene. Crashes involving 18-wheelers on busy highways like I-30 can create serious risks for drivers, passengers, and first responders. Investigators may need to determine whether speed, following distance, unsafe lane changes, distraction, driver fatigue, braking, blind spots, truck maintenance, cargo issues, or company safety practices contributed to the collision. Evidence such as dashcam footage, traffic camera video, witness statements, vehicle damage, electronic logging data, inspection records, maintenance records, and the truck’s event data may be important in determining what happened. If you were injured in a Grand Prairie 18-wheeler crash, I-30 collision, MacArthur Boulevard wreck, or serious commercial truck accident, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, impairment, and other damages.

Major 18-Wheeler Crash Causes Backup on U.S. 67 at I-35E

A major collision involving an 18-wheeler caused a significant traffic backup on May 21, 2025, near the interchange of U.S. 67 and northbound I-35E. According to early reports, the crash involved a commercial truck and created heavy congestion as traffic slowed through the area. Officials had not immediately released details about injuries, the number of vehicles involved, or what caused the crash. Major truck crashes at highway interchanges can create serious hazards for drivers because of merging traffic, lane changes, limited reaction time, and the size and weight of commercial vehicles. Crashes involving 18-wheelers require a thorough investigation. A Texas truck accident lawyer can review whether driver fatigue, distraction, unsafe lane changes, following distance, speed, brake failure, tire failure, cargo issues, roadway design, or trucking company safety practices contributed to the collision. Truck accident evidence can disappear quickly. Black box data, driver logs, electronic logging records, inspection reports, maintenance records, dashcam footage, vehicle damage, roadway debris, crash scene photos, witness statements, police reports, and crash reconstruction evidence may all be critical to determining what happened and who may be responsible. If you or your loved one was injured in a Dallas 18-wheeler accident, U.S. 67 crash, I-35E truck collision, or Texas highway interchange wreck, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, future care needs, property damage, and other damages.

Overturned Tanker Truck Shuts Down Lanes on I-635 Near I-20 in Balch Springs

An overturned tanker truck was reported around 7:17 a.m. on June 16, 2026, on northbound Interstate 635 at Interstate 20 in Balch Springs. Emergency crews responded to the scene after the tanker overturned, creating significant traffic disruptions during the morning commute. Early reports did not indicate whether other vehicles were involved or whether any injuries were reported, but incidents involving tanker trucks often require extensive emergency response efforts because of the potential for fuel spills, hazardous materials, and roadway closures. Tanker truck rollovers can occur for many reasons, including excessive speed, shifting cargo, mechanical failures, tire blowouts, driver fatigue, distraction, impairment, or roadway design issues. Because tanker trucks carry liquid cargo that can shift during travel, rollover crashes often require specialized investigations. Evidence such as driver logs, maintenance records, cargo loading documentation, electronic logging device data, crash scene measurements, witness statements, dashcam footage, and event data recorder information may be critical in determining what caused the incident. If you were injured in a Balch Springs truck accident, tanker truck rollover, I-635 crash, I-20 collision, or serious commercial vehicle wreck, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, impairment, disfigurement, and other damages. If a loved one was seriously injured or killed, your family may also have legal rights under Texas law. Call (214) 699-6524 for a free consultation. You don’t pay unless we win.

Big Rig Crash Closes Multiple Lanes on I-69 Eastex Freeway in Houston

A crash involving a big rig shut down multiple lanes of the northbound I-69 Eastex Freeway near Kelley Street in Houston, according to ABC13 and Houston TranStar. Traffic cameras showed significant backups as emergency crews responded to the scene and worked to clear the roadway. Authorities advised motorists to expect delays while investigators examined the circumstances surrounding the crash and crews removed damaged vehicles from the freeway. Commercial truck crashes on busy urban freeways can create serious hazards for motorists and often result in extensive traffic disruptions. Investigators may need to determine whether speed, driver fatigue, distraction, improper lane changes, mechanical failures, cargo issues, weather conditions, or roadway factors contributed to the collision. Evidence such as dashcam footage, traffic camera video, witness statements, crash scene measurements, driver logs, maintenance records, inspection reports, and event data recorder information may be critical in determining liability. If you were injured in a Houston truck accident, I-69 Eastex Freeway crash, big rig collision, or serious commercial vehicle wreck, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, impairment, disfigurement, and other damages.
