A crash in Richardson injured two people after an 18-wheeler hit the center median on U.S. 75 near the Campbell Road exit and spilled granite into the northbound lanes. According to Richardson police, the truck was traveling southbound while carrying about 44,000 pounds of granite pallets when the load broke loose and debris scattered across the roadway. Six northbound vehicles were either struck by the granite or drove over it, causing damage. Two people, including the 18-wheeler driver, were taken to the hospital with minor injuries. Crashes involving unsecured cargo and commercial trucks require a careful investigation. A Texas injury attorney can review whether the truck’s cargo was properly loaded, secured, inspected, and transported, as well as whether driver error, speed, mechanical issues, roadway conditions, or trucking company safety practices contributed to the crash. Truck accident evidence can disappear quickly. Cargo securement records, inspection reports, driver logs, black box data, dashcam footage, vehicle damage, roadway debris, police reports, and maintenance records may all be critical to determining what happened. If you or your loved one was injured in a Richardson 18-wheeler accident, U.S. 75 truck crash, or collision involving fallen cargo, you may have the right to seek answers and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, vehicle damage, and other damages.

An 18-wheeler crash caused a major lane closure on I-49 North, leading to an hours-long traffic shutdown Tuesday morning, according to KSLA. Early reports focused on the roadway closure, and injury details were not immediately confirmed.

A truck accident attorney can investigate driver speed, fatigue, braking distance, lane position, cargo securement, maintenance records, black box data, dashcam footage, and whether the trucking company followed required safety rules. Even when injury details are unclear, people involved in a serious truck crash should protect their rights early. Trucking companies and insurers may begin investigating immediately, while key evidence can disappear quickly.

Two people were killed and two others were hospitalized after a serious single-vehicle crash in Dallas’ Pleasant Grove neighborhood on May 4, 2026. According to FOX 4, Dallas Fire-Rescue responded around 9 p.m. to the 2400 block of North Jim Miller Road near the Grover C. Keeton Golf Course. First responders requested a heavy rescue team and used specialized tools to cut four adults from a Toyota SUV. A man and woman died at the scene, while two other adults were taken to a hospital, including one in critical condition and one with serious injuries. Investigators believe the SUV was traveling south on Jim Miller Road when the driver lost control, left the roadway, and struck a tree. Single-vehicle crashes can still require a detailed investigation, especially when passengers are killed or seriously injured. Important questions may include whether speed, distraction, impairment, roadway design, lighting, vehicle defects, tire failure, evasive action, or another unknown factor contributed to the loss of control. Evidence such as crash scene measurements, event data recorder information, vehicle inspections, witness statements, surveillance video, and roadway-condition evidence may help explain what happened. If you were injured in a Dallas car accident, Pleasant Grove crash, or serious single-vehicle 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. If you lost a loved one, your family may also have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. Call (214) 699-6524 for a free consultation. You don’t pay unless we win.

A deadly crash near Central Texas College killed two people after a driver allegedly traveled the wrong way on Interstate 14. According to reports citing Texas DPS, the fatal collision happened near CTC in the Killeen area, and state police later released details about the crash. The investigation remains ongoing.

A Texas car accident attorney can investigate whether roadway hazards, poor lighting, debris, tire failure, vehicle defects, unsafe road design, or another driver’s actions contributed to the crash. Single-vehicle accidents are not always the driver’s fault. Evidence such as crash reports, roadway photos, surveillance footage, witness statements, and vehicle data may help determine whether an injured driver or passenger has a valid claim.

An autonomous truck reportedly completed a fully automated commercial load across Texas with no human assistance. According to reports, Bot Auto conducted the 230-mile run on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, traveling from northeast Houston to Hutchins, just south of Dallas. The route reportedly included I-45, frontage roads, side streets, and stop lights. CDL Life reported that the company said there was no safety driver, observer, or remote operator responsible for intervening during the trip. While no crash or injury was reported in this autonomous trucking trip, driverless commercial vehicle operations raise important safety and legal questions. A Texas autonomous truck accident lawyer can review whether autonomous driving software, sensors, cameras, radar, lidar, mapping data, route planning, company safety protocols, maintenance, remote monitoring, or system-fallback procedures contributed to a crash if one occurs. Important evidence can disappear quickly after an autonomous commercial vehicle incident. Vehicle data, sensor logs, camera footage, software records, route data, maintenance logs, company safety reports, remote monitoring records, black box data, traffic camera footage, 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 Texas autonomous truck accident, driverless semi crash, Houston-to-Dallas I-45 truck wreck, Hutchins commercial vehicle collision, or self-driving truck accident, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, property damage, and other damages.

A fatal motorcycle crash in Hunt County claimed the life of a 68-year-old rider after he reportedly lost control and crashed into a roadside ditch near Greenville.

Motorcycle accident cases can be especially difficult because riders are often blamed before all the facts are known. Evidence such as crash reports, roadway photos, witness statements, helmet damage, motorcycle data, and scene measurements may help determine what really happened.
