Wooley Law Takeaway
A crash involving multiple big rigs shut down the eastbound lanes of I-610 North Loop near McCarty Street in Houston early Wednesday, May 20, 2026. According to ABC13, Houston police said the 18-wheeler jackknife crash was first reported just after 2 a.m. The wreck caused heavy delays for several hours before clearing around 7:30 a.m. ABC13 reported that a tanker truck and an overturned FedEx truck appeared to be involved in the crash. Houston police said no major injuries were reported, but the crash created significant traffic delays while crews worked to clear the roadway. Crashes involving multiple commercial trucks require a thorough investigation, even when major injuries are not initially reported. A Texas truck accident lawyer can review whether driver fatigue, distraction, unsafe speed, sudden braking, following distance, improper lane changes, brake failure, tire failure, cargo issues, or trucking company safety practices contributed to the wreck. Truck accident evidence can disappear quickly. Black box data, driver logs, electronic logging records, inspection reports, maintenance records, dashcam footage, tanker records, cargo documents, 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 Houston 18-wheeler accident, I-610 North Loop crash, McCarty Street truck wreck, or Texas commercial vehicle collision involving multiple big rigs, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, property damage, and other damages.

Garland Man Killed in Allen 18-Wheeler Crash on U.S. 75
A deadly crash in Allen claimed the life of a Garland man after a passenger vehicle struck the back of an 18-wheeler on U.S. 75. According to Allen police, the crash happened around 6:55 a.m. on Sunday, June 29, 2025, on southbound U.S. 75 near Bethany Drive. Investigators said a white Chevrolet Malibu left its lane and crashed into the rear of a tractor-trailer that was stopped on the right shoulder with its hazard lights activated. The driver of the Malibu, identified as 52-year-old Rodolfo Rodriguez Sr. of Garland, was found unresponsive and trapped inside the vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene. A passenger in the Malibu suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a nearby hospital. The 18-wheeler driver was not injured and cooperated with investigators. Fatal crashes involving 18-wheelers require a thorough investigation, even when early reports say a passenger vehicle struck the back of a stopped tractor-trailer. A Texas wrongful death lawyer can review whether the truck was legally stopped, whether hazard lights and reflective markings were visible, whether the shoulder placement created a roadway hazard, and whether lighting, visibility, vehicle defects, distraction, or another preventable factor contributed to the crash. Truck accident evidence can disappear quickly. Black box data, dashcam footage, vehicle damage, tractor-trailer lighting records, inspection reports, maintenance records, roadway measurements, 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 your loved one was killed in an Allen 18-wheeler accident, U.S. 75 truck crash, Collin County fatal collision, or Texas wrongful death case involving a commercial vehicle, your family may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, mental anguish, loss of companionship, and other damages.
