An 18-wheeler crash shut down Interstate 35 South in the Schertz/Cibolo area near Roy Richards Drive and FM 3009, creating major traffic delays during the early morning commute. Reports stated that details about the cause of the crash and injuries were still limited at the time. Crashes involving 18-wheelers on major highways like I-35 can quickly become dangerous for nearby drivers. A Texas truck accident attorney can investigate whether speed, driver fatigue, distraction, improper braking, poor maintenance, unsafe lane changes, or trucking company safety violations contributed to the collision. Even when early reports do not confirm serious injuries, truck crash evidence should be preserved quickly. Key evidence may include black box data, dashcam footage, driver logs, inspection records, maintenance reports, crash-scene photos, and witness statements. If you or a loved one was injured in a Texas 18-wheeler accident, you may have the right to pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, 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.

18-Wheeler Overturns in Upshur County Crash on Highway 271
An 18-wheeler overturned in an Upshur County crash on Friday afternoon, June 5, 2026. According to KLTV, the wreck happened around 2 p.m. at the intersection of Highway 271 and FM 726 and involved an 18-wheeler and another vehicle. The 18-wheeler landed on its side in a ditch beside the road, and one northbound lane of Highway 271 was blocked while first responders worked the scene. East Mountain, West Mountain, Gilmer, and DPS responded, and DPS was investigating the cause of the crash. 18-wheeler rollover crashes can be especially dangerous because of the size and weight of the truck, the risk of cargo shifts, and the possibility of secondary crashes while lanes are blocked. Investigators may need to determine whether speed, braking, driver fatigue, distraction, roadway conditions, turning movements, load balance, truck maintenance, tire failure, or company safety practices contributed to the wreck. If you were injured in an Upshur County 18-wheeler crash, Highway 271 collision, FM 726 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.

Multiple People Hospitalized After Inmate Transport Van and Pickup Crash on I-30 in Arlington
Multiple people were taken to local hospitals after a crash involving a Dallas County Sheriff’s Office inmate transport van and a pickup truck on eastbound I-30 in Arlington on March 18, 2025. According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, the crash happened near Six Flags Drive and Texas 360 while the van was transporting inmates. Investigators said the pickup appeared to switch lanes in front of the van and then stop abruptly. Police said the van driver tried to brake but rear-ended the pickup. In total, 12 people were taken to hospitals as a precaution, including 11 inmates and the pickup driver, and officials described the injuries as minor. Crashes involving inmate transport vans, government vehicles, and passenger vehicles can raise important questions about driver training, following distance, traffic conditions, lane changes, braking, vehicle maintenance, seat belt use, and whether passengers were properly secured during transport. Even when injuries are initially described as minor, people involved in freeway crashes should still be evaluated and should pay attention to symptoms that may worsen over time. If you were injured in an Arlington crash, I-30 collision, inmate transport van accident, or serious freeway wreck, 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.
