A deadly wrong-way crash on I-35W in Fort Worth that left two people dead highlights one of the most dangerous and often preventable types of collisions on Texas roads. From a Texas personal injury attorney’s perspective, wrong-way accidents almost always point to serious negligence. These crashes are frequently linked to impaired driving, distracted driving, or driver confusion, and they tend to result in catastrophic or fatal injuries due to the high-speed, head-on impact. When a driver enters a roadway going the wrong direction, liability is typically clear, but that doesn’t make the legal process simple for grieving families. In fatal crash cases like this, surviving family members may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. Under Texas law, compensation can include funeral expenses, lost future earnings, loss of companionship, and the emotional toll of losing a loved one. In cases involving reckless or intoxicated driving, additional damages may also be available to hold the at-fault driver fully accountable. It’s also important to understand that these cases often require a thorough investigation. Evidence such as toxicology reports, traffic camera footage, and accident reconstruction can play a critical role in proving what happened and securing justice for the victims. Wrong-way crashes are tragic, but they are rarely unavoidable. When negligence is involved, families deserve answers and accountability. If your family has been impacted by a serious or fatal car accident in North Texas, you don’t have to navigate this alone. Call (214) 699-6524 for a free consultation. You don’t pay unless we win.

Major Crash Backs Up Traffic on I-35E at Lewisville Lake Bridge
A major crash on southbound I-35E at the Lewisville Lake Bridge caused significant traffic backups on May 21, 2026, at approximately 3:00 p.m. According to early reports, two right lanes and the shoulder were closed as emergency crews responded and worked to clear the scene. Officials had not immediately released details about injuries, the number of vehicles involved, or what caused the crash. Crashes on bridges can be especially dangerous because drivers often have limited shoulder space, fewer escape routes, and reduced room to avoid disabled vehicles, debris, or sudden traffic backups. Major highway crashes require a thorough investigation. A Texas injury lawyer can review whether speeding, distracted driving, unsafe lane changes, following distance, impaired driving, roadway conditions, vehicle defects, or another preventable factor contributed to the collision. Crash evidence can disappear quickly. Black box data, dashcam footage, vehicle damage, roadway debris, crash scene photos, surveillance video, 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 Lewisville car accident, I-35E crash, Lewisville Lake Bridge collision, or Texas highway 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.

The presence of a medical helicopter often indicates serious injuries, and drivers were advised to expect emergency activity in the area while crews worked the scene. Major crashes requiring air ambulance transport require a thorough investigation.

A collision involving a white Ford pickup truck and a white delivery van caused traffic backups on May 22, 2026, at approximately 10:28 a.m. on northbound U.S. 75 near Meadow Road in Dallas. According to early observations, both vehicles appeared to be merging into the second right lane at the same time when the white Ford pickup struck the passenger side of the white delivery van. Officials had not immediately released details about injuries, the drivers involved, or whether any citations were issued.
